Crossandra infundibuliformis - the firecracker flower - (Marathi Aboli).

The seedpods of Crossandra infundibuliformis - the firecracker flower - (Marathi Aboli), goes through dehiscence on stimuli of even slight drizzle/ shower of water over it.

In the video, you will observe a single pod dehiscing; but imagine, when it rains, and many such pods are dehiscing at the same time.

It is like a show of firecrackers!

And the popping sound that the dehiscing makes resembles that of firecrackers. Thus, the name...
