My name is Rajini. I am from Bangalore, India. I have a terrace garden and would like to share these pictures.

close up of cream colored rose with pink of edges of petalsThis rose is just stunning. I love how each petal is perfectly outlined in pink.

close up of bright yellow orchid with lots of bloomsThis is an Oncidium orchid, one of the easier types to grow and a heavy bloomer when happy.

close up of cluster of pink rosesThis rose has small individual flowers, but it makes up for that by producing them in these big clusters. I love how they open a darker pink and fade to near white, so the cluster shows many colors at once.
