Such flowers and stems are found in pumpkins, gourds, or ginger plants. The top one has an orange flower about to bloom, and the bottom two are not yet fully bloomed.Fine hairs appear around the stem, which is a natural feature of the plant.
The shape of the flowers is quite long and thick. The flower buds are twisted, and this blooming means the plant will soon bear fruit. This type of flower is called female or male flower, because the pumpkin plant has two types of flowers, one is the female flower that produces fruit
A piece of wood and a section of black mesh or fencing are visible. Perhaps the plant is growing on a terrace or at one end of the garden. The loft or fencing helps the plant to grow upwards and thereby reduces the risk of spoilage when the fruit does not come in contact with the soil.
Most interesting is the creeping part of the tree and its twisted roots. These roots or coil-shaped parts grow upwards by clinging to the surroundings. They are very important for trees, as they help the tree maintain its balance and are firmly attached to a structure.
Such flowers and trees are a familiar sight in rural Bengal. Many people also plant such plants in the backyard or in the tub on the roof. In addition to eating the fruit, many people also cook and eat the flower.
This picture is not just a tree, but a familiar and natural beauty of our rural life. This silent beauty of nature teaches us patience, growing with time and standing firm in our place.
I always write in Bengali and even then I check my posts myself and translate them into English.
