Which Labiateae ??
Same sp. as enclosed link ?

Yes, appears close to your other unidentified posts, as mentioned.

Any idea about the genus?


Calyx structure remind me of Clinopodium sp.

If it is Clinopodium it could be only Clinopodium piperitum (D. Don) Press.
But I could not find images and description in the net except for some herbarium.
Can you please help? Clinopodium piperitum (D. Don) Press,

What about Clinopodium nepeta or its subspp. ?
Compare different Clinopodium species at:

Thanks, …, To me it appears close to specimens of Clinopodium piperitum at GBIF. Pl. check.
I could not find a description of this species on net.
Pl. post detailed description, if you have.

Thanks for the mail. Please find the attached description. In Indian context I’ve excluded as it is endemic to Nepal. I’ve not seen the live plant and made description some 25 years back based on herbarium specimens. From photo I could not identify also. Please compare the description.

Any idea about family?


Lamiaceae ??

I think Lamiaceae
Micromeria??

Lamiaceae member

A member of Lamiaceae

Thanks, …, for pointing towards the genus.
We have only one species of Micromeria biflora so far under this genus and images under threads look a bit different.
Check list of Nepal gives another species as Micromeria nepalensis Kitam. & Murata, but I could not find much details on net.

Lamiaoceate ! Not Micromeria biflora, is it ?

Yes, you are right …, this is not Micromeria biflora..

Can anyone guide towards the genus of this Lamiaceae member?

Orthosiphon incurvus Benth.  ???

Inflorescence looks different to me.

Yes, I also think so.

Earlier posts were shot in March and April !

Thanks, …, for the superb images.

Micromeria biflora (Buch.-Ham. ex D.Don) Benth. ??

No, it is not Micromeria biflora.

No it is not Micromeria biflora, in that species, the leaves are small and round shape.


Pl. check Clinopodium umbrosum (M.Bieb.) Kuntze
To me appears close.

I guess flower pattern is not matching. May be something different?


Clinopodium piperitum (D.Don) Murata !
