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. " !
