... not getting bitten by this plant. Not exactly bitten but a touch of this cute little leaves will leave you with terrible itch, swollen and irritated skin. Its a painful experience.

And they hide well behind other plants too. Onam season, when we are actively looking for flowers to make the patterns, it was very common to come home with hands and legs bitten by both mosquitoes and this plant, "Thumba".

Found one growing in the house today, all in it's glory enjoying the rain. Somehow it looks good after rain. But definitely getting killed tomorrow 💪
