Anyone know the Indian name of 'Chinese Wisteria'(an ornamental plant)?

Wisteria is wisteria.. Chinese Wisteria is Wisteria sinensis. This plant has purple, hanging flowers and is a vine that can be trained on supports or into trees. The fruit is a long bean. This plant is found in temperate climates. The leaves are compound, looks like many leaves.





Quisqualis indica (rangoon creper) is a completely different plant. It has very pretty pink (deep pink) flowers that smell very good. It is also a vine, but it grows up things and needs support. This plant grows in warm climates and will not survive cold winters outside. The leaves are rounded and opposite.
