Thanks Garg ji, Prasad ji, Bhagyashree ji, Rathinasabapathy Bhuvaragasamy ji, Tanay ji, Gurcharan Singh ji and Adittya for appreciation. Yes Adittya U R right, this was photogarphed near Gorai Jetty.
In fact i forgot to tell you a small story behind this,
This was for the first time i met Dr Satish Phadke ji. He was in Mumbai and had a free day. He just contacted me and then myself, Satish ji and Dinesh decided to go on some Flower sighting trip. That day we had been to Vasai fort (@ outskirts of Mumbai) and then to Gorai. Gorai is very close to famous "Essel World". Apart from other plants, i was bit keen to see "Cistanche tubulosa" and fortunately Dinesh knew about this location. We all were fortunate enough to spot it. While we were photographing this plant, suddenly one Police patrolling jeep stopped near us and started questing us. Seeing our cameras,they probably thought that we are some people from Press and are there to colllect some info/ or to report some thing. When we revelaed our identity, they told us that this place is bit notorious and informed us to be care full. Notorious for many reasons.....better not to comment, destruction of Mangrooves may be one of the reason.. ...
It is preferrable to visit this place in small group rather than going alone. This was a memorable trip and spotting of Cistanche tubulosa was icing on the cake......
Thanks for reading..
Regards
Prashant

Thanks Prashant
I will always remember those fond memories of our Flower hunting trip.
I was feeling for a long time that some of the group members should go for such visits together. It compliments each other. Somehow we could manage it that time.
How can I forget the Sharbat you served us in the canopy of trees behind Vasai fort and some good foodstuff brought by Dinesh ji too.
Thanks again for reminding me of those memories.

This is a strange little "plant" parasitizes the tooth pick plant
called meswak ... if I remember it... can not grow without it...
but how did it get to the mangrove neighborhood from the high desert
of the biblical times??/
Does meswak grow in mangrove areas?

Of course it was growing on Salvadora persica roots. There were a lot of these shrubs.
I guess it is a mangrove plant.--

I had known Salvadora persica as a shrub/tree of dry habitats. Never knew it can grow along sea shores, among mangroves. A case physiologically dry habitat???.

Prashant ji,
Very beautiful composition of all images together.
I am sure I wrote to you yesterday, but somehow can't find my post.
