Sorry for the wild guess but it prompted me to look into the details.
>From whatever I concluded from the info. available to me.
1)*Leucas biflora*(2 var....*biflora and procumbens*) will have lax whorls,
which are 2-4 flowered.
Here it is showing many more flowered.
2)Mouth of calyx tube doesn't look to be oblique....which eliminates a
large group.
3)Calyx teeth stellately spreading, mouth villous.......Well I think so.
(The other group has Calyx teeth not stellately spreading, mouth not
villous)
4)Next we have to look for upper lip of corolla
a)densely bearded with rufous hairs; calyx teeth lanceolate
.... *L. ciliata
*
a)densely bearded with white hairs; calyx teeth not lanceolate ...
b)Calyx tube pubescent or tomentose, glandular teeth linear ...*
L.stelligera*
b)Calyx tube glabrous below, villous above the middle teeth
subulate *L.eriostema.*
Considering the above Key the illustrated plant appears to be *L.stelligera.
*
Please comment and opine.
