Heterotis rotundifolia, commonly called pink lady, Spanish Shawl, or rockrose,[2] is a shrub in the family Melastomataceae that occurs in tropical Africa.

The branches tend to spread wide, and range from pink to a dark reddish in color.

[4] The leaves are oval shaped and three-ribbed, being 1–3 cm (0.39–1.18 in) long and 6–15 mm (0.24–0.59 in) wide.

The petals of the flower are 1.5–2 cm (0.59–0.79 in) in length and range from pink to a pale purple in color.

It has been introduced as a ground cover and ornamental plant to other tropical areas such as Hawaii, Malaysia, and the West Indies,[7][6] and has become naturalised in some topical parts of Australia.
