 The area around the log hut of the Kansal forest is well maintained and showed beautiful landscaping. Clusters of racemes bearing pure white coloured flowers adorned the medium-sized
 <em>
  Prunus
 </em>
 (Family – Rosaceae) trees and were a part of landscape horticulture.

 The white cherry tree is of great ornamental value and is usually vegetatively propagated. The sepals green in color compose a cup-shaped calyx. Petals are white in color, delicate and caduceus, falling with a gentle touch or breeze. Flowers enclose numerous stamens (20-30 in number) hat are curved inwards bearing bithecous anthers at the tip.
</p>
<p>
 The students teased the anthers to release the ellipsoidal and ovate pollen to catch a view under foldscope.

 Red and green coloured aphids were noticed on Rose plant. Close observation showed white flies and sticky exudation on the leaves. I had read in my biology class as insects  moult they shed their casts and their whitish cast skins may be mistaken for whiteflies.

 With our foldscopes ready, we fixed samples and observed some nymphs and their moulted casts. The casts showed some blue coloured luminescence under normal light at the fringe and on observing under polarized film it appeared green.

Aphids on Chrysanthemum showing movement captured under foldscope

<p>
 Chrysanthemum plants are in full bloom these days in my garden.Some plants however are still young and have not flowered. The other day, I noticed some flies on it. On moving closer, I saw it infested with aphids. The leaves were showing white sticky patches and dark brown-grey coloured minute pests sticking near the growing tip and surrounding leaves.

 I fixed a sample on a slide and observed small black-brown Nymphs and dark brown large adults.

 Pests being arthropods pass through various phases till they metamorphose into adults. The insect moves through different stages by moulting its exoskeleton. On scanning the slides, I saw some casts shed out during the moulting process which showed some kind of lluminiscence under polrised light as was seen in case of Rose aphids.

Aphids seen on Chrysanthemums under foldscope

<p>
 Onset of spring season has sprouted new leaves on my tulsi plant. Trichomes were isolated from young tulsi leaves and observed under foldscope. They were of variable shapes and sizes. I wonder if the mature leaves too have similar type and shapes.
