The living landscape

Species recorded in Kerala, India. Explore their names, flowering records and profiles. Occurrence records do not by themselves establish native status.
Plan a plant walk in Kerala
Search recorded plants, then use the flowering filter to make a seasonal checklist for your next walk or school nature outing. Match habitat notes to your route: roadside, garden, grassland or forest.
Flowering ranges come from species-level catalogue records, not observations specific to Kerala. Rainfall, altitude and cultivation can shift timing. June–September is a browsing window, not a prediction of local monsoon dates. Unknown and irregular flowering records are excluded from month filters.
