Why last two images look different ?

…, they belong to the Crotalaria plant.
In the second photo, among the mix of plants, please trace the stalk of inflorescence; it arises from a plant with leaves and stipules shown in last two photos.

ಬಳ್ಳಿ ಗೆಜ್ಜೆಗಿಡ balli gejjegida

Kannada name is O.K.

On second thought  I though I could suggest one more alternative word which is more appropriate: ಗೆಜ್ಜೆ ಬಳ್ಳಿ Gejje balli. Balli implies that it is a climbing plant. Gida= plant. Nevertheless, decision is yours.

You have correctly pointed out the contradicting parts of the name !!!!
I will correct the name to ಗೆಜ್ಜೆ ಬಳ್ಳಿ gejje balli
