Usha Di ,
The Evolvulus grown in hanging basket is an ornamental species  E.glomeratus .  It looks very similar !  Evolvulus alsinoides is wild and one of the shanku pushpis' used in Aayurveda in South.

i know
thats why i was surprised that some one in Hugli district (WB) was able to grow it
(because its very rainy and humid here)
so i paid a lot of money to buy it
but after a season
in the balcony i did not get any seeds

where as in Saurashtra around Dwarka etc it self seeded and grew in abundance.

Have you photographed both?
to show the differentiation in your neighborhood

Flower size... 
Smaller than thumb-nail=E. alsinoides . 
More or less about size of two thumb-nails = E. glomeratus .

Thanks Rakesh ji.
These flowers were just about a centimetre across.
I think the long pedicel is good characteristic of E. alsinoides; I am not sure of E. glomeratus pedicel length. Any way the E. glomeratus flower is relatively quite large.
Regards.

Madam,
 I am sending the photographs of E.glomeratus  grown on a neighbor  house compound wall.  .  The area where the E.alsinoides was present  was  cleared by the  Corporation (cleaning drive)..  Nevertheless , I will spot somewhere else and post you the photographs.
Regards,

Thank you, Mahadeswaraji

I also noticed besides being larger flower , the stem is hairy
unlike the A. alsinoides
