When Sarath brings a white flower to show-and-tell, most of the kids are unimpressed. But her teacher takes the flower home, and his wife, a biologist, is intrigued by it. A school field trip to the place where Sarath found the flower confirms what she suspected: it is a very rare specimen. However, the patch where the flower grows is in danger of being destroyed by a land developer. Through the students' efforts, the developer decides to build around the area where the rare flowers grow.
