A cultivated, ornamental bush seen at Lalbagh Botanical Gardens on 16/3/13.

Jacobinia?


This could be Justicia brandegeana??


Shrimp Plant looks different.
I have photographed it.
This could be some Aphelandra, I had posted from Peradeniya, Sri Lanka.


Could this be Aphelandra sinclairiana?
Common name Orange Shrimp Plant, Coral Aphelandra?


looks like Justicia scheidweileri


Attaching one more cropped picture.
I believe this to be Aphelandra sinclairiana, and not Justicia.
Experts kindly validate.
