Dear Vairam,I have seen your work on kurinjippattu flowers.As a student of tamil I felt joy and excitement.I am 69.But never i have come across such an attempt to show the flowers oof the ancient tome.Your work is simply superb.I have seen my long time dream of making sangam period into picture became a reality by y0ur work.Blessings to you.Lord Murugan will shower upon you all the wealth in the earth.Your loving Balu.
great work. lot of time and dedication has been taken for this..so many flowers i have read only in novels and it was nice to see what were they. can you send me pictures of manoranjtham, parijatham , shenbagappoo ? I might have seen in this slide show, but couldnt place them with their ancient names.

It took usmore than a month to find this flower. This flower has lesscommercial value, hence couldnt be found in any flower markets. Butwe got information from the flower sellers that this flower wasused by hair weavers who weave for marriage sauvri. These flowersare used as decoration, these flowers have longer stem hence can beuse to poke into the weaved hair. Those hair weavers wouldn't sellit and after persuasion the flowers were bought and photographed.Thanks to Mr.Mahendran Sa, Mr.Balakumaran Kamaraj and his mother,GopalapuramKrishna temple florist Mr.Murugesan, my parents and Mr.Jagannathan Narayanan 125Slides preparedbyPalaniappan Vairam Sarathy [email protected] 2ff7e9595c
