Dear All: could this be Jamaican species... I have seen it in a herbal garden in southern suburbs of calcutta a few years ago... I guess it could be Stachytarpheta jamaicensis of Verbenaceae family.??? I was told than, all those years ago that it was a kind of catmint??? or related to catmint... dont even have my hurriedly jotted down notes now... but my brain seems to have stored this piece ...
I wonder what would Gurucharanji say?
