Rainbow Mountain Peru
One of the most wonderful geologic features in the world is the
Ausangate Mountain of the Peruvian Andes. The mountain is striped with
colors ranging from turquoise to lavender to maroon and gold. However,
this “painted mountain” is notoriously difficult to find and get to,
requiring several days of hiking to reach its peak deep within the Andes
by way of Cusco. The mountain sits at an elevation of 6,384 meters and
is located approximately 100 km southeast of the major city Cusco. The
local area is rich in geology, from uplifted granitic cliffs to glaciers
which have eroded large valleys and the cretaceous limestone “forest”
nearby. Rainbow Mountain Peru turned out not to be the beautiful natural
wonder that you see on the tourism posters in Cusco.

The Himalayan Brown Bear
The Himalayan brown bear is also known
as “The Himalayan Red Bear”, distribution from northern Afghanistan, northern
Pakistan, northern India, west China, Nepal, and have become extinct in Bhutan.
The male brown bear ranges from 5ft - 7t 3in long while female is little
smaller ranges from 4 ft 6 in - 6 ft. Thus, it is largest mammal in Asian
region, as these bears are omnivorous and hibernate in a den during
winter. A large brown bear has thick fur
which is most often sandy or reddish-brown in colour. The head is large and the body heavy and the
legs stocky. The Himalayan brown bear is found in three major mountain ranges,
Hindu Kush, Karakoram and the Western Himalaya, and four inter-mountain
highlands. Himalayan brown bears seem to be arguably the least arboreal of all
the bear subspecies. The average wild life of brown bear is 20 to 30 years.
Though current in a number of
protected areas, they’re becoming progressively rare because of loss of
suitable habitat and hunting by humans, and have become "critically
endangered." Himalayan brown bears
exhibit sexual dimorphism and they are the largest animals in the Himalayas and
are habitually sandy or reddish-brown in color. The brown bears include
habitats of high altitude open valleys and pastures. During the summer months the bears move up as
high as the snow-line at around 5,500 metres and then descend into the valleys
in the autumn. The Himalayan brown bear consists of a single clade that is the
sister group to all other brown bears and polar bears. Overall, the brown bear
is one of the most widespread bear species in the world, and one of the most
ancient brown bear lineages. It’s a very large animal, believed by some that
the bear’s ability to walk upright probably gave rise to the legend of the Yeti
or “Abominable Snowman.” Deosai National Park in Pakistan has the largest
population of Himalayan brown bears in the region; it is also one of the few
places where their habitat is protected.
Moreover, Himalayan brown bears
are omnivores and will eat grasses, roots and other plants as well as insects
and small mammals; they also like fruits and berries. They will also prey on
large mammals, including sheep and goats. Thus, both genders will eat before
sunrise and later during the afternoon. The Himalayan brown bear is a
critically endangered species in some of its range with a population of only
150-200 in Pakistan. The populations in Pakistan are slow reproducing, small,
and declining because of habitat loss, fragmentation, poaching, and
bear-baiting. Moreover Himalayan brown bears are diurnal and, except during
mating and for mothers with cubs, are solitary.
Mating takes place during May and June with cubs being born in the
winter den in December and January. The
bears go into hibernation in a cave or dug-out den around October, emerging in
April or May.

Lahore Fort or Shahi Qila Lahore Pakistan
The Lahore Fort (Punjabi and Urdu: شاہی قلعہ: Shahi Qila, or "Royal Fort"), is a citadel in the city of Lahore, Pakistan.The fortress is located at the northern end of Lahore's Walled City, and spreads over an area greater than 20 hectares. It contains 21 notable monuments, some of which date to the era of Emperor Akbar. The Lahore Fort is notable for having been almost entirely rebuilt in the 17th century, when the Mughal Empire was at the height of its splendour and opulence.
Though the site of the Lahore Fort has been inhabited for millennia, the first record of a fortified structure at the site was in regard to an 11th-century mud-brick fort. The foundations of the modern Lahore Fort date to 1566 during the reign of Emperor Akbar, who bestowed the fort with a syncretic architectural style that featured both Islamic and Hindu motifs. Additions from the Shah Jahan period are characterized by luxurious marble with inlaid Persian floral designs, while the fort's grand and iconic Alamgiri Gate was constructed by the last of the great Mughal Emperors, Aurangzeb, and faces the renowned Badshahi Mosque.
After the fall of the Mughal Empire, the Lahore Fort was used as the residence of Ranjit Singh, founder of the Sikh Empire. The fort then passed to British colonialists after they annexed Punjab following their victory over the Sikhs at the Battle of Gujrat in February 1849. In 1981, the fort was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its "outstanding repertoire" of Mughal monuments dating from the era when the empire was at its artistic and aesthetic zenith.

Larch, An Evergreen Tree
Larches look for the entire world
like evergreen trees. Larches are conifers in the genus Larix, in the family
Pinaceae. Larch is also called Larix, is a long waving twigs have tufts of
small needles; they even have cones. But come fall those needles turn yellow
and fall off just like the leaves of any deciduous tree. And the wood is more
like that of deciduous hardwood trees than the softer wooded evergreens. Larches
are among the dominant plants in the boreal forests of Siberia and Canada.
Although they are conifers, larches are deciduous trees that lose their needles
in the autumn.
Larches are beautiful in the wild;
a stand of them will turn a hillside a bright pale green in early spring when
the needles start to grow, and bright yellow in fall. But have also lived with
a larch on the lawn, as a specimen tree, and found it a handsome unusual
accent. The Native American larch “Larix laricina” also called “eastern larch”
and “tamarack” grows as tall as 90 feet in an open pyramid. Larches are among
the few deciduous conifers, which are mostly evergreen. Other deciduous conifers
include the golden larch Pseudolarix amabilis, the dawn redwood Metasequoia
glyptostroboides, the Chinese swamp cypress Glyptostrobus pensilis and the bald
cypresses in the genus Taxodium.
It is fast growing and one of the
hardies trees known. It will even live in Zone 1, regions of which are simply referred
to as”the tamarack” because that’s about all threat grows there. European larch
“L. deciduas” hardy to Zone 2, is taller and is perhaps best known for the
variety L. d. “Pendula” whose climbs have gracefully drooping side branches.
Moreover Japanese Larch “L. leptolepsis or L. kaempferi” hardy to zone 4, is
also pendulous, with peeling bark. It grows very fast and is more resistant to
canker than other larches. Source: Chrismaticplanet.com
Well, to grow Larch, you need a
cool climate. They prefer a sunny location and deep fertile, rather acid soil
that is moist but well drained. They are easy to transplant but are best
planted balled and bur-lapped in fall or early spring. Larches rarely need
pruning. Lower branches can be removed from head room of if they are week and
straggly. The trees should have a central leader; if that is damaged replace
with another branch as described in the listing for fir.

Rainbow Eucalyptus, The Most Amazing Tree on Planet Earth
Eucalyptus deglupta is a tall
tree, also famous as the rainbow eucalyptus, Mindanao gum, or rainbow gum. The
most colorful tree on earth is found in an area that spans New Britain, New
Guinea, Seram, Sulawesi and Mindanao, and is the only Eucalyptus species with a
natural range that extends into the northern hemisphere. It thrives in tropical
forests that get a lot of rain. This painted forest, Secret Marvels of the
World says, is simply astonishing. The trees’ amazing hues come about thanks to
sections of bark shedding at different times during the year.
These trees may look like they have been painted on, but these colors are all natural. This unusual multi-colored streaks on its trunk comes from patches of outer bark that are shed annually at different times, showing the bright-green inner bark. This then darkens and matures to give blue, purple, orange and then maroon tones. Eucalyptus deglupta is the only Eucalyptus species found naturally in the Northern Hemisphere. Now, this tree is cultivated widely around the world, mainly for pulpwood used in making paper, and also for ornamental purposes.

Moreover beside of climate,
rainbow eucalyptus growing conditions include full sun and moist soil. Once
established, the tree grows three feet per season without supplemental
fertilizer, though it needs regular watering when rainfall is inadequate. Therefore,
the most prominent feature of a rainbow eucalyptus tree is its bark. The
peeling process results in vertical streaks of red, orange, green, blue and
gray. Though the tree’s color isn’t as intense outside its native range,
rainbow eucalyptus bark color makes it one of the most astonishingly colorful
trees you can grow.
Rainbow eucalyptus is an enormous tree that is out of scale for most home landscapes. Moreover, make sure it can cause property damage as its raised roots break up sidewalks, damage foundations and raise small structures, such as sheds. The tree is better suited to open areas, like parks and fields, where it provides brilliant shade as well as fragrance and beauty.Source: Charismatic Planet
