Dear Friends,

I had seen this shrub planted in front of a house near Shigekeri village (Karnataka). Flowers were light pink in colour.

Date/Time: 16-01-2011 / 03:30PM
Location: Shigekeri village (Karnataka),
Habitat: Wild
Plant Habit: Large Shrub (4 to 5 m)


Could this be Malvaceae sp.

regards
Prashant
