Rare Neelakurinji flowers bloom in Kerala’s Kallipara hills.
Neelakurinji, a species of wildflower that blooms once every 12 years, is primarily found in southern India—these purple-blue flowers blossom in significant areas of Karnataka, Kerala, and some parts of Tamil Nadu. "Neela" means "blue" in Malayalam, and kurinji refers to flowers.
The blossom takes 12 years because Neelakurinji flowers take longer to pollinate, which is known as the "survival mechanism" of plants in botany. Longer pollination assists the species in avoiding extinction due to predators and climate change.
Both Chikkamagaluru in Karnataka and Kerala witnessed this remarkable event this year.
