Well, I have my doubts on this. Leucas lanata is not found in Manipur, so a local name seems unlikely. Flowers of the Himalaya gives the distribution from Kashmir to C. Nepal. The two books I have on the plants of Manipur, list Leucas aspera, L. ciliata and L. lavandulaefolia. And all these are called Mayang-lambum. Girija never heard the name chandrongaam If I get any more feedback from local people in Manipur, will let you know. Tabish
