Alka ji,
I have also seen, photographed and posted this plant from Jijamata Udyan earlier.
I could not get its correct id.
On searching, the closest match is Ruellia amoena.

Thanks Aarti ji for the feedback... but I think the flower structure of Ruellia amoena looks different..

I think we will have to wait for its ID...

Thank you Shrikant ji and Garg ji for providing this ID.

There seems to be some variation in the shape of the lower lip of the flower posted above and the pics available on the net (the lower lip of the pics of flower available on the net are curled whereas this is not the case in the pics above), the leaves also appear a bit different. Is this variation okay?

Thanks and regards

Thank you Gurcharan ji for the ID, Shrikant ji had also suggested the same.

However, while googling with this ID, I found that there was some variation in the shape of the lower lip of the flower posted and the pics available on the net (the lower lip of the pics of flower available on the net are curled whereas this is not the case in the pics above), the leaves also appear a bit different.

I was wondering whether this variation was okay?

However, since 2 experts have given their verdict, I take it as Justicia spicigera..

Thanks and regards

This ID is for these two images as there was confusion due to multiple sps. in one thread.

Thank you.
