This is my favorite flower.In Sri Lanka this flower is called "Yaka Mal".Real name is Black Bat flower.I brought this from Haldummulla. From that uncle Nila's house.This is the first flower of the plant I brought.
Betel nut is very popular among the villagers. . Betel leaf is a good omen.It is used for many good purposes.I have heard in a story told by our father that betel cobra was brought from the world.Betel is a part of Sri Lankan culture.
It is a crop endemic to Sri Lanka.Mostly cultivated in association with chena farming .This is also known as Kekiri.The price of a kilo of Kekiri in the market is 50 rupees.I went to the market after a long day and that's when I took this photo.
