Good morning Alastair Ji While some pictures of *Perilla frutescens* found in google-search look like this plant, the leaves of *Perilla frutescens* seem to be acute as have been described in Flora of Pakistan - http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=5&taxon_id=200019964. Moreover, the same description informs *Perilla frutescens* is strongly aromatic.
I am not sure which taxon i should place this plant to. Thank you very much.
