Bakawali

This amazing plant (Bakawali) only produces one flower in a year, if you are lucky. Its flower blooms at midnight.
One who witnessed the flower blooms is considered a very lucky person. I wish to extend the luck to you by posting these photos.



The white flower emits very sweet and nice aroma that attracts it pollenator kilometers away. In old malay movies, they portray bakawali flower as panacea that can cure any strange illness, especially the ones that were caused by black magic. Of course to get to the flower the hero have to climb a mountain higher than the Everest with all sort of obstacles... including dragons.

These photos were shot by my daughter, Faizah Iskandar. Please contact me if you want to use the photos.

Bloom

Bloom, Bandar Baru Bangi, Malaysia, April 2007
I spotted this bloom in Bandar Baru Bangi. The contrast between the colour of the bloom and the leaves made the flower stood out.
