By the way, if you have any pictures of the plant in it's habitat, or of the general landscape it grows in, that you could add to this, that would be fantastic.

Hello ShridharIyer & welcome to Noah! That's quite an entrance you made! Thank you for sharing this rare and beautiful Abutilon with us. I hope measures to preserve it in it's remaining locations are successful. Is there much appreciation locally of how special it is to the area?

There's more info. on this species in the link below:
