Nice pics Parshant ji. Has called scorpiod shape common name Indian turnsole. Recently saw this at Anashi WLS. Interesting bit mentioned in Isaac' book pg 76: "Generic name derived from Greek helios (the sun) and trope (to turn) referring to the old belief that the flowers turned with the sun. " !

 

regards,

Rashida.
