How are you all? I hope everyone is well.
This afternoon, I went about 8 kilometers away from my home for some urgent work. When I was feeling bad in this harsh sun and sweltering heat of Baishakh, my eyes fell on these Nayantar flowers. The flowers are blooming in one corner of the Eid field. How fresh and smiling they are even in such sunshine all around. Seeing them, all the fatigue in my body disappeared in an instant.
This Nayantar flower is my favorite. Its great quality is that even if they don't get much care, they spread their color in the courtyard of the house or in the corner of the garden. It is impossible to explain how magical it is to see these small flowers with light reddish spots and green leaves amidst the pink. When I was a child, I used to see these flowers blooming in the courtyards of almost all the houses in the village. How many memories we have are tied to the petals of these flowers.
I tried to take the pictures very closely with my phone camera. In fact, the petals of the flowers are so beautifully arranged that you cannot understand it without looking through the lens. These days, we plant so many expensive foreign flowers in our gardens, but the softness of our native simple Nayantara flower is difficult to find anywhere else. I have presented the real form of the flower to you without any additional editing.
For those of you who love plants and flowers, how do you like this Nayantara? Is this flower called by any other name in your area?
I will be very happy if you tell me in the comments.
