Hi,
Photographed at my farm at Shahapur near Bombay. After the Common Begonia flowered [Photograph 1] and died out, these small annual herbs have taken over the boulders.
Would be grateful if someone could identify it.
Thanks,
Neil Soares.
P.S. Had posted photographs of the Common Begonia flowering previously :

Neilji I have not seen this plant so far but I reckon this to be
Argostemma sp. of Rubiaceae. Could you pls give a close up to show if
the flowers are 4 or 5 merous? Regards, Shrikant

Parjanya Guruji, I agree with your ID. The leaves appeared whorled but
on careful look they are alternate. Thank you. Regards, Shrikant

Forwarding again for Id confirmation or otherwise pl.
Some earlier relevant feedback:
“I stick to Elatostemma of Family Urticaceae.

“Parjanya Guruji, I agree with your ID. The leaves appeared whorled but
