Cultivated plant seen last month in Nairobi.
Looks like some Persicaria Species from the Knotweed family.

Yes! Persicaria for sure. Can not confirm the species, as I don't know much about the flora of Kenya.

Ritesh

Ritesh Ji,
Thanks for your feedback.
Although seen in Kenya, this was a cultivated, garden plant.
Hope to get the Species.
Regards,
Aarti

Ritesh Ji, 
This looks close to Persicaria campanulata 'Southcombe White'.
Just a guess.
Regards,
Aarti

Thanks a lot Garg Ji.
To me it is very close to the last link provided by you as the flowers were white.
Hope Ritesh Ji has a look.
Regards,
Aarti
