Yes Garg ji, I too thought so. I was of the impression that Wadi strobilanthes (*Strobilanthes warreensis - *synonym of *Strobilanthes ciliatus*) was a small herb. Here, the posted plant is a much branched shrub, with slender woody branches. The flower here, seems longish. Anurag has seen similar plants of *Strobilanthes ciliatus*. Regards. Dinesh
