[Dalia Set]

Hi Friends

Large blue bell shaped flower, buds covered with hairy bracts. Which Karvi is it - Pleocaulus ritchiei   or Nilgirianthus reticulatus ?
These pics taken from one plant. I will post another set of similar flower, seen some distance away. Kas. 22nd Sep 2012.

Both flowers once in 7 years - got info from net.
