Flowers bloom once in 12 years, wow that definitely is worth a grand celebration. I did a quick search and the flower is Neelakurinji?

Of course yes. Lavender colour. It is juat spread in acres. Four houra journey by road from my place.

Very rare and fascinating. I wonder how the flowers smell :)

Yes, they are. I haven't been there yet, so Iam not sure. Once it blooms, its live in media attracting tourists.
