Roadside flowers during the monsoon

All these flowers make the public road look bright and colourful. These evenig shots give the flowers an elegant and colour rich look!

All these flowers are seen in front of houses. One of the house owners who came to enquire about my interest in flowers while I was taking their pictures, told me that they plant the flowering plants in the pavement in front of the house during the late summer, so that the seeds would sprout during the monsoon and enhance the look of the roadside.  

Some of the flowers are exotic and uncommon! Excepting that the twenty minutes drive took 90 minutes today, this experience of meeting some of the owners of the house was refreshing. They looked fascinated by me noticing the flowers and taking pictures. They felt acknowledged.
