It is called മുക്കുറ്റിപ്പൂവ് in Malayalam. Is the name new to you, Geeta? If so, what is it called in your place?

Thank You Geeta for sharing your thoughts on the poem. Mukkuuti is so common during the Onam season that it is the ‘Symbol' of Onam

And the tiny Mukkuuti flower with its smile of gold, is the most important of all flowers, when we make the Flower Bed, the "Pookkalam"

Hi Sylvia, now that you have read Geeta's poem, hope you have read my notes on it too. If not, I request you to. Onam is our First Spring Festival of the year. And Flowers play most important role in the celebration. Thank You
