Thanks for the beautiful photo!The Elsholtzia strobilifera and E. pilosa belong to different sections. In the former the Inflorescence strobiliform spike, bracts cup-shaped connate and persistent; where as in E. pilosa the Bracts longer than or as long as flowers (4 – 6 mm) midrib stout, pilose. Indeed the entire plant would be pilose (dense indumentum).In the photo I could not see any cup shaped connate bracts, but the plant is densely hairy, I feel it is E. pilosa only.Sampath KumarFrom: "J.M.

Some earlier relevant feedback: Looks like E. pilosa. DSRawat Pantnagar Your plant looks very similar to mine at "Lamiaceae for ID ABSEP2016/33”. You had suggested Elsholtzia strobilifera as a possible ID. Please advise. Thanks.
