To me it is S.discolor<\/i> Colebr. only.
\nS. discolor <\/i>Colebr. is a small unbranched plant with all leaves at base, flowers in long, solitary spike while S.grossa<\/i> is a branched herb with many smaller spikes<\/span>.<\/span>

Pl. Check comparative images at EFI.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Pl. check with images at <\/span>Orthosiphon thymiflorus<\/i> (Roth) Sleesen<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

It is not <\/span>Orthosiphon thymiflorus<\/i> because\u00a0Flowers white or pink or mauve, in 15-20 cm long, terminal, racemes with distant whorls of flowers, each whorl with 5-6 flowers; pedicels 2-3 mm long. Calyx 6-7 mm long, deflexed, 2-lipped; conspicuously purple on the upper lip, green otherwise upper lip broad and entire, lower lip 4-lobed, lobes subulate, hairy.
\n<\/span><\/span><\/span>here they are solitary, flower is also different.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n

It \u00a0matches with <\/span>Orthosiphon viscosus<\/i> var <\/span>rubiginosus<\/i> where petiole is longer than leaf blade, but the plant list merged this with<\/span> O. thymiflorus<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Interesting! In first look I thought it as Scutellaria discolour<\/i>.<\/p>\n

\n

The inflorescence is various in Scutellaria<\/i>, but not in Orthosiphon; orthosiphon<\/i> has whorls of flowers. It looks similar to Scutellaria discolor<\/i> Ref: see the herbarium specimen;

\n

Family: Lamiaceae<\/i>
\nDate: 5th April 2015
\nPlace: Agumbe, Karnataka<\/span>
\nHabit: Herb<\/span>
\nCan this be Scutellaria violacea<\/span><\/a><\/i>?<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\n

Leaves remind me of plectranthus<\/i>… also of Lamiaceaae<\/i>
\nbut those seed capsule\/ young fruits seem to be of scutellaria<\/i> (as in s. integrifolia<\/i>) also a lamiaceae
\nnow I have confused myself<\/p>\n

\n

I too am not sure if this is Scutellaria<\/i> ma’am. I was simply going by the general structure of the flowers that were earlier identified for me in this post<\/span><\/a> and based on that, I could narrow down on this<\/span><\/a>. \ud83d\ude42 But not sure since I did not figure it out using a key.<\/p>\n

\n

I’ve not worked on Scutellaria<\/i> group, but my colleagues used to tell this common species as Scutellaria<\/i> violacea<\/i>, recently I’ve come across this species in SW Ghats (Nilgiris & Pulney hills), growing with Plectranthus<\/i> sp.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

I think it should be Scutellaria discolor<\/i> Colebr.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>\u00a0as per images herein.<\/p>\n
