Hi,

Neha Ji, there seems to be a mixing up, as the flowers belong to Oxalis maritima but leaves do not.

Yes there is mixing up. The flowers in fact belong to O. martiana (and not O. maritima which has yellow flowers) now correctly known as O. debilis var. corymbosa

The leaves perhaps belong to some malvaceous member
