Location, location, location it is as far as getting certain things like "oru mozham poo" (a hand length of strung jasmine flowers)!
We have four Jasmine plants in our house. They bloom over a very narrow time period and give us lots of flowers during the last two weeks in April. The four females in the house will treat these flowers like a precious commodity, pluck every little jasmine they can, take hours to string it, even save the flowers in the fridge in ziploc bags so it will last them a couple of more days after the plants stop flowering.
Note, there is more flowers here than hair on the little one's head, and she fought to keep it all for herself!
Jasmine's in the air!
