Malabar Spotted Flat Butterfly on Strobilanthes
 This is a top pick!
| SGNP "Silondha Trail" Mumbai India "Strobilanthes callosa" Karvy |
Karvy or Strobilanthes Callosa flowers during the monsoons, but just once in 4-8 years. Mass flowering is a spectacular sight when entire hillsides get carpeted in purple blooms, attracting droves of butterflies and bees with their sweet fragrance and nectar.
