VoF Week: Stachys sericea from Govindghat Ghangriya trek:

Stachys sericea from Govindghat Ghangriya trek

Discussed in previous mail by … and …, where we reached on conclusion that both those were not Stachys sericea.

Hope this time correct Stachys sericea
Pls validate

Reminds me of some Plectranthus species..
It is not Stachys sericea in any case. Stachys sericea has stalkless flowers arranged in whorls on the stem, unlike the cluster carried on long stalks in this plant.

… then closest match is Plectrantus mollis????

I got it now!
I think it is Isodon rugosus

Please verify.

How could you go wrong … This Himalayan plant we have seen together several times, Plectranthus rugosus, now Isodon rugosus, an important honey plant.

Yes Sir, Gotakhor hi dunte hai jinhe tairna nahi aata vo pani me nahi jaate…… So mistakes are obvious …….
Still I have to identfy exactly 4875 pics from valley so great burden on mind. Only 1250 resolved till today.

Well said …
