SPICE GARDEN:
Dear friends during my tour to Kerala, I visited Periyar Wild Life Sanctuary, there we got an information that in Thekkary Spice gardens are located, where all the different types of Spices and Ayurvedic plants are planted. The owner or it's worker will give the demonstration of the spices.
Then only I came to know the following things
1 Malabar (Kerala)
2 Mysore (Karnataka)
3 Vazhuka
Bird Chilli:
Bird Chilli also called as Bird's eye Chili. Bird chilies are one of the hottest chilies, ranking 50,000 – 100,000 in the Scoville heat scale. The flowers are greenish white or yellowish white. These chillies are very small in size, but don't go on their size one chilli is more than enough for making vegetable.
Picture shown below is Sugar Killer, which will kill the sweet test of Sugar. Actually one of my friend when he chewed one leaf of this plant and took some Biscuits he was not at all getting sweet test.
