Lamiaceae ?


I do also have this plant in my database from Gori Valley area, would like to have the id…!!
I first thought this to be Elscholtzia but this could not convince me enough..


Is it  Platostoma coloratum (D.Don) A.J.Paton (accepted name)  ??
        Geniosporum coloratum (D.Don) Kuntze (synonym)

Platostoma coloratum (D.Don) A.J.Paton is accepted name but not reported from Nepal.


Did not find any image in the web, however one link is noticed as below :
http://www.nhm.ac.uk/services/media-store/asset/1a/contents/preview
So, is it new to Nepal ?


Geniosporum coloratum (D.Don) Kuntze (synonym)
I think it is listed !


Thank you all for validation of the ID.

This seems to be an Elsholtzia sp. to me..
Please help to conclude id for this plant recorded from Gori Valley area..


/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Elsholtzia%20NS%2053%20-2-.JPG

Adding two more shots, if they are of any additional help..


Elsholtzia species in eFloraofindia (with details/ keys from published papers/ regional floras/ FRLHT/ FOI/ Biotik/ efloras/ books etc., where ever available)


To me appears close to images at Elsholtzia fruticosa (D.Don) Rehder as per comparative images at Elsholtzia, though I am not sure. Pl. check.


The Elsholtzia fruticosa /polystacya is having numerous inflorescence. but here I found only few infl only!
