vigna vexillata or "Elephant's trunk"
(Marathi : Halunda) - This flower mostly has two horizontal and two
vertical petals and one half moon shaped petal in the centre. As soon as
the insect lands on the central petal, an elephant trunk like
projection comes out bathing the insect with its pollen. This is how the
pollination of this flower is achieved
