LEARNING ABOUT PLANTS The rains have come back again and so has the interest in plants. FULRANI (meaning Queen of flowers) programme is telecast on Panaji Doordarshan (National Channel) every Friday from 7.25 p.m. to 7.40 p.m. in a 15 minutes slot. I have been receiving positive feedback from plant lovers, whether they are members of the Botanical Society of Goa or not.
One person from UK emailed to ask whether Video tape or CD of FULRANI is available. The answer is in the affirmative for access to VHS cassette, please contact the programme anchor, Ms. Amita Nayak Salatry (Phones 412656 and 417861). You may want to know some specific information on plants that may be of use to others too. Please mail your questions to Fulrani c/o Doordarshan Kendra, Alkinho Panaji 403001 Goa. Three episodes have been telecast so far 1. Environment and potting of plants. 2. Hibiscus and its care and 3. Bonsai. The episode on Bonsai featuring Dr. Sudhanshu Saigal was excellent. I missed the telecast due to a meeting of Rotary Editorial Committee. It was good to watch its recording. On Video. This Friday you can see Rozendo Mendonsa of Mr. Farmer fame on Fulrani. Watch it at 7.25 p.m. for feed back you can email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] On 17 and 18 August there will be an exhibition and sale of plants at Khorlim - Mapusa in the Saraswat College building. On Independence Day it is the Plant Mela at Govt College, Khandola. From 23 to 25 August will be the eleventh annual festival of Plants & Flowers at SFX High School, Siolim. For BSG members, the goodnews is that the BUDSPORT (the society's magazine) will sprout once again this month. Miguel Braganza.
