Dear Dinesh ji,

The Gujarati name of this plant is ઝીણાં પાનનો કૂબો. It is written incorrectly in your post. In Gujarati, કૂબો is the generic name for Leucas spp. and is suggestive of the whorl-like verticillasters characteristic of various Lamiaceae members. The words preceding કૂબો refer to the linear leaves of this particular species.

Best wishes, Viplav
