Garg ji A was able to find only one plant of this at Manali. It is Veronica betonicifolia (Syn: V. patrinii). This one one has narrower leaves than canescens, thicker, nearly glabrous, not deeply cordate at base, and corolla with a short saccate spur (spur longer, slightly curved in V. canescence). You can view google images, illustrations of Efloras of China and Pakistan.
