Anand Mahindra shared interesting video

Sikkim Sundari is a plant that grows at an altitude of about 4,000 to 4,800 meters above sea level. This plant remains just a bunch of leaves for many years and suddenly one day it starts growing rapidly.

The special thing is that this plant survives only in the form of leaves for 7 to 30 years and then gives flowers only once. At the time of flowering its height reaches about 2 meters. This process is called ‘monocarpy’ in scientific language, that is, the plant gives flowers only once in its life.

The plant taught us that patience definitely pays off in life.

Anand Mahindra has associated this characteristic with life and described it as the best example of patience. On his post, people are not only praising the beauty of this flower, but are also sharing information related to it.

Some users said that Sikkim Sundari is also called ‘Him Chameli’ and it is used in Ayurveda for problems related to digestion, inflammation, liver and pain. This post teaches people that sometimes in life one has to wait for a long time, but when the right time comes, hard work and patience definitely pay off.
