Kerala is at its greenest and prettiest during Onam. Folks celebrate the beauty of the land and the harvest with rounds of hectic rejoicing. For ten days, excited children collect a variety of flowers and arrange floral designs called a pookalam, with a clay mound in the centre, in family courtyards, to welcome Onathappan. The intricacy of the design and its colour scheme have a significance on each day of the festival.
