In this investiture of fleshly life A soul that is a spark of God survives . And sometimes it breaks through the sordid screen And kindles a fire that makes us half-divine. Savitri, Book 11, Canto V

Snow Bush

The plant was given to me by one of my collegues. According to him
this is a naturally born Bonsai of Banyan tree. So I kept it in a
small pot and cared little to help it grow. But it has not cared my
services and has grown in its own way. It drops aerial roots just like
banyan trees and clings anything below through them. It grows small
fruits.
But I have doubt whether my collegue was right as to its family. I think it is-
[BREYNIA DISTICHA [NIVOSA] "Snow Bush" pendant branches of oval
leaflets splashed with white and green, supported by erect woody
trunk. Easy spurge indoors. Growing they develop a round-shape shrub.
The Breynia distichia develops like a shrub. This plant in the winter
assumes a green colouring; it is small in size and can reach 1 m high.
It keeps its leaves in the winter.] as per my Google search findings.
