As autumn nears to an end, the night air has acquired a slight chill. But despite that it is a pleasant feeling to take an evening walk amidst the plants; it is rejuvenating, de-stressing and, thanks to these sweet smelling plants – a perfectly natural, low cost, aromatherapy.
It is rather unfortunate that the sense of smell cannot be conveyed through the blog post, but hopefully the night time photos will stimulate some olfactory nerves to give an idea of the soulful aroma of
Plumeria pervading the night time air.
The sensual delight of a perfumed garden – no allusion to the 15th century scripture – inspires me to have more of these aromatic plants like this
Hedychium.
During day the
Nyctanthes or
Parijata presents a lonely sight, but it is with the fall of dusk that the flowers bloom and start exuding their soulful aroma.
The sweet faint odor of this Jasmine pervades the evening air and depending on the direction of airflow, its intensity and character keeps changing, keeping the senses active yet very…very relaxed.
The most psychedelic of the pack has to be the queen. Queen of the night or
Cestrum nocturnum has the strongest presence in my garden among all the aromatic plants.
Every life is besieged with a thousand worries and a million anxieties but the time spent with children and plants is a catharsis brought about naturally, silently and effectively.
