A barren patch of land in Maharashtra's Latur city has been transformed into a lush green space with more than 200 species of flowers under a plantation initiative by an NGO.

A 1.5-acre land inside the Zilla Udyog Kendra premises resembles a 'valley of flowers', due to the relentless efforts of the Aamcha Green Latur Tree Foundation, which has planted around 30,000 saplings of more than 200 species of flowers since May.
