Thank you for the tip, … Looking at Web sources, especially www.efloras.org<\/font><\/a>, Ajuga macrosperma<\/em> var. macrosperma<\/em> seems to be a possibility… though no photographs are available for confirmation<\/p>\n

Does not look like Ajuga macrosperma<\/em><\/font><\/a>\u00a0as per images at Lamiaceae herb for Identification SN 16March 07<\/font><\/a>.<\/div>\n
