Agreed Satish ji ... only concern is the habitat and the size. I am under the impression that *R. indica* grows on slopes as an erect subshrub, and the flowers are about 1.5 - 2 inches across.
Plant in my photos, are growing on fort (or temple) walls .. and the flowers are just about 0.75 - 1 inch across. Is it possible that *R. indica* adapts to such habitat, exhibiting stunted growth ?
