first the flower is past its prime and both are open

the calyx and epicalyx of the front one covered by an invading catterpillar i think

though i suspect the calyx and epicalyx may have been the same size as seen in pictures of Texas mallow

leaves are three veined from the base in this case, and i suspect in the picture of texas mallow i cited above.

i suspect this could be temporirily put under Texas mallow, 

as per Carmelita's opinion

and not our regular Lanka joba or Malvaviscus arboreus Cav. 

per our thread 

Gurcharanji had this as diagnostic feature

Flowers erect, less than 4 cm long, leaves nearly ovate, 5-veined from base.....Malvaviscus arboreus Cav.

there is no way to follow this up

so we are stuck with: possible diagnosis
