Wild Mallow I have the same specie across the road from our home growing
near a ditch,each bloom last one day,grows 4-5 ft. tall. Reminds me of tropical flowers.

Certainly... Our ancestors built many hill forts there and made water cisterns into them help us to stay there some days... very amazing experience to stay on top of hills... along with many Organisms... I am doing this since last 26 years... started during 1986.

Hi Ashish Just checked images of Urena lobata and found one that someone in Thailand had uploaded with exactly the same leaf shape.

Thanks for your help! : )

I've checked out your suggestion Ashish and the flower is very similar but the leaves are a totally different shape I think
