Cannibis sativa or marijuana / hemp is a wild plant or weed (pun unintended!) in India. It grows throughout the country, as a pesky roadside plant. Here, along this highway headed north, to the Himalaya, the marijuana plants grow as tall as 9 or even 11 feet and line the entire 300 kilometer road. So common is the bhang plant that no one gives it a second glance and no one stops to harvest their own supply either! Instead, they would prefer the mangos that are ripening on the orchards alongside the highway… See the brightly coloured sheets on the litchi trees? Those are to keep away the marauding parakeets!
