Pankaj ji, I know what you meant. I was also trying to say the leaves looked similar to the Rose leaves....not the Rose plant. Rose came to my mind on seeing the leaves. Sir ji,one of the picture is taken at the Moghul Gardens Cheshmeshahi. If you happen to visit the place, do keep a lookout. Pankaj ji, on searching for Photinia, it does resemble my plant. Thanks for the possible id. Aarti
