Kalke or karabi or Thevetia flower

Hello friends! How are you all? Hope you are very well me too. Today I'm going to share a post about the Kalke or karabi or Thevetia flower. Kalke or karabi or Thevetia flower (scientific name: Thevetia peruviana) is a plant species of the family Apocynaceae. The word 'Thivetia' from the homologous name implies its original home.

The flower looks like a hookah Kalka, so it has simply become a name in Bengali.

Sari, Nakshikantha, and Kashmiri shawls are made using this leaf as a motif many times. In ancient times, these seeds were pierced and made into garlands and held around the neck.

Toxic part
All parts of this plant are toxic to most vertebrates because they contain harmful glycosides to the heart. There are many cases of intentional and accidental poisoning of people with flowers in Kalka. Types of poisoning are severe fatigue, paralysis, and lethality.

Planting place
Dark yellow callus Kalke is a small tree that grows tall and is planted in many parts of the world for the roadside, garden, and park landscaping.

Thank you very much and have a good day.
