Saluting every life with a flower each day! Flowers are soul of the planet, blooming to play music with silent notes. Smile at them as they are sweet hearted!! Only the photographs taken by me are uplinked. I lean heavily to http://www.flowersofindia for flower identification and descriptions. Looking forward to valuable comments and suggestions.

Scientific name: Sida acuta
The morning mallow or common wireweed is native of Central America, but spread across the globe. This is a much branched shrubby plant growing to a feet or more, leaves are simple, lanceolate and prominently toothed. Flowers grow from axis and are yellow in colour, 1-2 cm diameter, solitary and occasionally in pairs. Flowers are buttercup like in shape with overlapping five petals. I took this photo on 31st August, 2011 in CSRTI, Mysore campus.
