Looking at the relative size of basal leaves and inflorescence, I think it
is Salvia moorcroftiana.
Salvia lanata: leaves 5-10 cm long, mostly basal, less than 3 cm broad,
inflorescence mostly unbranched, flowers violet to
blue
Salvia moorcroftiana: leaves 10-25 cm long, 4-15 cm broad,
inflorescence branched, flowers lilac.
