Guidelines for Munnar Neelakurinji Visit 2018

1. 1. Neelakurinji flowering site is STRICTLY NO PLASTIC ZONE.
   2. Do not pluck the flowers or plant. They are an endangered endemic species and an integral part of the ecosystem. Any harm to even a single plant will impact the entire region at large.
   3. The Kurinji plants are fire resistant and act as a natural protector to the grasslands from forest fires and also protects from soil erosion so please refrain from harming the plant.
   4. Neekakurinji will grow only above an altitude of 1500 meters above sea level and so be plucking them in hopes of growing them at home will be in vain.
