Hello friends, I'm at Blue Poppy Premier in Joshimath, and this year we have grown about 4,000 of these lilium flowers here, and in this video I will take you on a beautiful tour of the property.
Our resort is right on the national highway, and our parking is quite big, so you will never have a parking problem. Let's go ahead. Everywhere here you will find beautiful plants. Even this wall: we have used it to grow geraniums, and these geraniums give you flowers throughout the year. This beautiful one is alyssum. It seeds itself, and it flowers all year too.
The yellow one above we imported from Russia. You will find lots of flowers all over the resort. This is our reception area. See, it is built entirely in wood. That is what makes our resort special: 80 to 90% of the construction here is in wood. This is deodar. And if you come outside from here...
there's an open deck here too, and below this deck, a deck there and a deck here, and you will see wonderful views. We have built many decks, and each one looks down over Vishnuprayag. And what you see down there is oriental lily, in yellow. Very beautiful, and it has a fragrance too.
We have three decks here: one by the reception, one you can see below, and one in front of our restaurant, with a beautiful view of Vishnuprayag. And we have planted flowers everywhere. When you go from the reception to the rooms, there is a slope like this. Some rooms are right here by the slope, some a little further on, but it is quite an easy walk.
For senior citizens, wheelchairs are available too. But we keep vehicles from coming down on purpose, because of the pollution. Along this path we have built five new individual cottages. They are quite spacious, and all have balconies. The view in front is the Alaknanda, and almost all our rooms have this kind of view. This is one of our individual cottages. See, it is a very spacious room.
All our rooms have smart TVs like this, and this is a king size bed. The room is exactly 14 feet by 14 feet. And for keeping your luggage you will have no problem with space. And outside this room, a very nice balcony. From the balcony, see, a huge view of the Himalayas, and over there is Vishnuprayag, which you can see from the room.
This is the bathroom of this room, quite spacious and nice. It has running hot and cold water, and our running hot water is solar powered. The bathroom fittings are all imported, so you get good quality. And all the bathrooms are alike.
This is our second deck. On decks like this you can sit in the evening and really enjoy yourself, and the view from here is excellent. From this deck, look ahead: such a big view of the Alaknanda. We sit here and watch all day, especially in May and June. Overall this place is wonderful in itself. Sit here all day, and you will love it. And look, this time the lilies have come up here too.
This garden you see is one part of our garden. We have planted liliums in many places, below too, where we have our kitchen garden and flower garden. But look from here, what a beautiful view. Come here in the evening, how lovely it will be. These liliums: we imported a few four years ago, just 400, normally in the plains a lilium is finished after one bloom, but in the Himalayas the results are very encouraging. It multiplies every year. An imported bulb this big in the first year grows even bigger here the next.
Because of this we have started growing liliums on a war footing. So when you come, especially in May, June and July, you will certainly find lilies. We are also setting their cycle so that you get liliums for as long as possible. I went to the Srinagar Tulip Garden some time back. Take it from me, this will be no less. We are trying to make it even better. So if you are a nature lover... And one more thing: this resort is in a very good location. If you are going to Badrinath, the Vishnuprayag road you see alongside: Badrinath Ji is at most an hour, an hour and a quarter from here.
Auli is 13 km from here. You can visit Auli, we have a resort there too. And you can go to Niti, Malari, Ghamsali, a beautiful drive too. You can do the Gorson Bugyal trek, and visit Kalpeshwar Mahadev. There is local sightseeing in Joshimath too. Even if you stay five or six days, it will not feel too long. Take it easy. You can have a really good holiday here. Normally the internet connection is very good too, no such problem. We have Wi-Fi throughout, and your mobile data will work very well too. So do come here.
