Dear Gurcharan Ji ,
I made a terrible mix up during taking the photograph of Ocimum kilimandscharium hence i am attaching the photo of the leaf which I think is of this plant please validate, I am not very close with this plant and only got a single change to see a wild specimen in Madhya Pradesh. this is the reason why I did not attach the photo of the leaves initially.
Regards
tanay
