"Madhuri ji, you need not be a botanist to fill up the format beyond headings. There are no type/attachment/size/surface of leaves or
colour and size of flowers, yet I would say this is Talinum of Portulacaceae. Interesting thing about this plant is that the flowers
open only at 2 pm and wither by 4 pm. You can call these as 'siesta flowers'. Regards, Shrikant"
