White Summer...A flower's appeal is in its contradictions - so delicate in form yet strong in fragrance, so small in size yet big in beauty, so short in life yet long on effect.

This is the flower I pick every morning from the bush which reaches up to my terrace. I float them in my urli. Do you know the name?

I love the quotation.

Lovely pictures and quote.

I think the floating flower is crepe jasmine/nandiawattai (in Tamil)?

Thanks all:-)

The floating white flower is called 'Star Jasmine', though it doesn't have any fragrance it just lifts my spirits with it's beauty:-))

Anu- YEs, it is also called "Nandiya wattai"
