Rafflesia
can be found in the forests of Malaysia, Southern Thailand, Sumatra and Java.
But, Rafflesia flowers are fairly hard to locate. It is especially difficult to
see them in bloom. Its buds take up to 10 months to develop while its blossom
lasts for just a few days.
Rafflesia
has brownish, scale like leaves and fleshy, smelling flowers of various sizes,
from few inches to meter big in diameter. We usually noticeits large
fleshy flowers. There is a deep well in the centre of the flowers. The sexual organs
are located beneath the rim of the disk. Male and female flowers are separate.
The reddish
brown colors of the petals, sprinkled with white freckles produce unpleasant
stench, similar to rotting flesh. This would attract flies and insects which
help disperse the seeds. Rafflesia isparasite, which means it takes the

Last autumn I was in India during Diwali, the “Festival
of Lights” which takes place every year to celebrate the victory of good over
evil. This festival lasts for five days and is held at the end of October or in
the first week of November.
Preparations began weeks before the event. People
cleaned their homes and painted wonderful designs called rangolis on the walls
and floors. They bought beautiful new clothes and jewelry to wear during the
festival. Women made delicious sweets which were better than any others I have
ever tasted.
During the five days of Diwali, every home and temple
was decorated, inside and outside, with lovely clay lamps and colourful
candles. After dark, the whole neighbourhood glittered with thousands of tiny
lights, as though in a fairy tale. Excited children set off firecrackers, and
at first I was frightened by the loud bangs, but the spectacular display was so
fascinating that I soon joined in the spirit of celebration.
Diwali is a deeply moving festival. I am very grateful
I had the chance to share in this celebration of peace and harmony. I have fond
memories of the experience, and in particular I will never forget how friendly
and generous people were.
