Last week, along with Anajali and Hemant Pardikar, we went to the Kaas near Satara in Maharashtra. This place is known as is a Plateau of Flowers. The lateritic plateau of Kaas becomes home to millions of tiny flowers in late monsoons.More than 300 varieties of wild flowers, herbs, orchids, shrubs, insectivorous plants etc. can be seen here in Aug and Sep ….. This plateau overlooks the lush evergreen forests that serves as a water catchment area of Koyna Dam In the monsoons, the whole area transforms into a carpet of flowers : the yellow of Smithia and Sonki flowers, the pink of Balsam, the purple of Karvi etc…. here is a link to the pictures I clicked while there.......
