Dhol Kolmi(ঢোল কলমি) - Ipomoea carnea

Another morning glory flower. This time this one is called pink morning glory. In India this is called as Behaya Ful(বেহায়া ফুল), don't know why. In our country Bangladesh, we call this Dhol kolmi(ঢোল কলমি). Another name is available, Dudh Kolmi(দুধ কলমি), possibly for the white sap of the plant.



This semi woody shrubby plant basically use to make live fence at the fields or around the house premise at villages. The leafs of this plant are toxic and for which the cattle don't show any interest on these.



Flower of this Dhol Kolmi is similar to other morning glory flowers. This time this one is pink/purple in color and the crepe funnel shaped flower has a star formed inside. Botanical name of this neglected flower is Ipomoea carnea from the plant family Convolvulaceae.



This plant has medical uses as it has the component of sedative. The whole plant produces white sap when torn or broken. Propagation of this plant is done by cutting in our country.

  1. The pollution that happens as a consequence of contact with the dead typically speaks to the contamination that happens inside an Initiate's Soul in the event that it stays in contact with "dead" parts of oneself. Any remainder of the old method for being must be yielded, and any contact with dead parts of the spirit must be cleansed in the flames of the heart, in the fiery debris of the Mother who has "kicked the bucket" to discharge the spirit from the domain of fantasy, similar to the Celestial Aphrodite who unbinds consummated souls from their bodies and discharges them into ecstasy.DCITAPPS
