Lantana salviifolia to be precise, with double "ii". Does this have a eucalyptus type smell. I remember seeing similar plant during my field work, but it had white flowers and very strong Eucalyptus smell. I just checked. Fl. Brit. India, 4: 562. Hooker had one more variety, Lantana indica var. albiflora. May be thats what I have seen. Thanks for the id Shrikant Sir. Regards Pankaj
