My Fav Golden Champa!

yesterday i was very surprised,know why??..actually the reason is that a sweet fragrance in the air made me to find out my ever favourite golden champas(3 no:s)which bloomed in my garden after a long wait for almost 10 years..though the healthy tree grew up too high, it didnt have flowered for many years.. now i hope it will be giving more flowers in future..
if iam not wrong,there are 2 similar varities yellow and golden..being fallen in love with golden champa, hopefully it had been planted in my courtyard..
now some more buds are there to bloom..but i dont think i can pluck it easily as it is high up in the sky:((..yesterday i got just one of  the 3 in my hand after taking an hours effort and  i like to share the photo with you....:))hmmmh what a fresh sweet pleasant fragrance!!!!

woww Leela lucky you..champa is one of my favourite too..i just love the fragrance and i put them in my books..even now..
in my mom's house 6 months old plant started to bloom..
in tirumala you can find plenty of them.. the moment you enter tirumala the chantings of venkateshwara and sweet fragrance of these flowers make me feel so devotional..

Leela,I think I can't express my feelings to you today..Since this golden Chambakam (as we call it) has a special role in my whole childhood and teenage...I was yearning to see one..The smell the breeze bring with it once it's bloom and the teenage dreams...Thank you so much for bring back it to my life...Thank you !
