Hello,
I had earlier compiled pictures of 99 flowers mentioned in Kurunjippaatu. Now I have made it into a slide show and downloadable PDF format. Please view the slide show and give your comments.

Great work Vairam
Since fingers are compared to Kandal Malar – Can we say that Kandal is Coral flower?
its very tough sir bcos it is also compared to head of a cobra the red thing on top of a cock fingers and so many other things that its really tough identification.

But really very interesting. studied Neir Neir – Thema Neir Nirai Koovilam etc without even knowing what is a Thema flower or a Koovilam flower.
Cobras, fingers ! my head spins!
Can some one help me. Hi Sathees where are you?

I have heard of “KanthaL malr in Tamil literature. I suspect it is extinct in all probablity like the birrd annam.
