To my eye, the sepals of Mussaenda frondosa <https://powo.science.kew.org/taxon/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:756632-1> look broader in comparison to my images, and also more hairiness of the plant. Also the buds of my plant look different from those of M. frondosa. The buds of my plant appear to agree with the M. roxburghii images on Flora of Bhutan site https://biodiversity.bt/species/show/6298 https://biodiversity.bt/group/royal_manas_national_park/ observation/show/5360 Tabish
