It is my favorite too. I like the way the sixth petal of all the surrounding flowers form in the center to make one whole flower.
Tell me a bit more about the name, since I would like to tag it appropriately. Is this commonly known as Panneer pushpam/panneer poo? I need to find out the english name for it. The flower looks familiar, but I can't recollect the english name for it. A small suggestion, for future posts; please cut off the extra space around the kolam. :)
Lata :)))))) it can also be called as "Parijatham" - a night jasmine (I hope so :))))))and as per ur suggestion.. i will cut out the extra space in future..
I hope this is the flower you're referring to (I knew Pavazhamalli, but didn't know Parijatham and pavazhamalli were one and the same):

If it is this one, then I would say you got the shape of the flowers exactly like the real ones. :)
Yes my favourite flower design too :)
vidhya , very nice kolam i like this kolam very much such a simple kolam we can really give a good design around which looks more beautiful.
very nice koloam..nice border.
Lata, Pavizha malli is with led color kaambu and round in shape. This design is favorite of all. Small mistake in coloring ...blue petal is one less and green one more.

Rajamma_2 - Thank you very much for pointing out the colouring mistake.. Will be more careful in my future submissions.. but what i think is.. i will put the same kolam in floor and will upload a fresh pic.. Lata once i update that tomorrow, could u replace this?
