Dinesh, we can explore two genera: Cynanchum and Matelea. Look at this pic of Matelea denticulata: http://www.illustratedgarden.org/mobot/rarebooks/page.asp?relation=QK99A1K6318831914B2&identifier=0734 Cynanchum viridiflorum, for example, has green flowers with a flesh colored ring in the center. It has large heart-shaped leaves too. |

Thanks, Tabish, Will keep in mind about these genera. Matelea seems closer. In Further Flowers of Sahyadri, I see the above flowers resemble to those of Heterostemma, especially H. dalzellii, H. tanjorense or H. deccanense, ... unfortunately there is not much about species related to this genus on the internet!! Regards, Dinesh. |

The cream flowered plant is tentatively identified as Heterostemma tanjorense. Many thanks to Tabish and Navendu for validating the identification. PS: The pale-pink flowered plant could turn out to be of same species; yet to be confirmed. |
