Its known as "Thetti" in Kerala and is a common flowering plant here.

It also has a sweet juice like substance which we can take from its bottom.

Common flower in Kerala - called locally as 'Thetti', 'Techi', 'Chetthi'.
Considered as a sacred flower, mainly is used in temples for rituals.
After flower, small fruits (bright red) will develop.
Not sure whether edible, never tried.
