Winter Wild Flowers

I found this exquisite flower growing by the wayside on one of my long walks. After a long search on the net and in books on wild flowers of India, I discovered that it is Nepeta hindostana.

This was another wild flower I found . It grows on a short tree, which is full of flowers in this season. I think it is Dalbergia lanceolaria.

Both these native flowers are beautiful, but nobody bothers about them. I hope some nurseryperson will start growing them commercially.
