​Marigold

Marigold is one of the most versatile flowers. The clusters of petals in its flower make Marigold resistant to heavy rains. So, when other flowers shed their petals owing to the rain that falls on them, Marigold absorbs it.

​Jasmine

Jasmine is famous for its pure white colour and the subtle fragrance it spreads where it grows and blooms. During the monsoon rain and winds, the fragrance becomes even stronger and the flowers continue to bloom further even in the humidity.
