Hello all,
 
encouraged by appreciation of the group, cannt wait to post today's quota, even though confirmation of a few are still awaited (even from the yellow series).Today's colour is Pink!
 
The first two are garden flowers/shrubs - this one taken in the West Bengal guest house in Suntaleykhola. I remember seeing this one in a garden in Assam from some four decades ago!
 
With grateful thanks.

This is Cleoserrata speciosa as the stamens are inserted together in a club like stub above the bottom as per discussions at Cleome gynandra L. from Kamrup district, Assam and as per keys at Cleoserrata speciosa
