I think Neha Ji has a point by saying *Osbeckia chinensis* leaves are not but are linear-lanceolate. You may see the diagram of *O. chinensis* drawn by Osbeck @ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osbeckia
Now what species this could be I have seen *O. waynadensis* in the wild they are different. Would you please let me know the number of stamens and whether they are of equal length or not.
