Ruellia tuberosa
hahaha same plant :D Now I have a plant name to go with the happy memories, thanks Lani.
I think they're in season now; I see them everywhere these days. Is this the thing that we would put inside our mouth (the pods) and wait for it to burst? :)
I have lots of happy childhood memories with this plant. I grew up playing with the dry seed pods that bursts open when it gets wet.
Thanks, Ashish. You're right. More research following your suggested ID led me to: http://www.thefullwiki.org/Dipteracanthu...
