Looks like a cultivated sp.


It’s not Hibiscus vitifolius,
Might be Hibiscus cannabinus varieties,


I agree with you … It’s not Hibiscus vitifolius !


Yes …, As you said it might be Cultivated variety,


Was it cultivated?


No sir. It’s growing wild form/habitat
Only two to three individuals are present in the location. The main location in this plant is Abhera biological park kota. The park is situated in rocky area & forest type is grassland
