Flower Show - A Visual treat

A nature lover, I was thrilled, when I read about the annual flower show at Ooty - a mere 100 kms from where I stay at Coimbatore. We decided to drive down enjoying the scenic beauty along the way. A thrilling, winding and at times scary turns led us to the wonderful hill station Ooty. The coonoor railway station and the toy train were a sight to remember. I had travelled by the toy train way back as a student.


A huge arch made of coronations welcomed us into the Botanical Garden


From there on, it was a colourful treat of phlox, pansys, tube roses, the list is endless.
