Garg Ji,
This is similar to my post from the Golden Gate Park, I had posted earlier.
Hence I suggested Echium.
Will post the higher resolution images.

Alastair Ji,
Thanks a lot for confirming it to.be Echium Species as suggested by me earlier. 
I had seen similar plants at the Golden Gate Park in San Francisco.

Aarti

It’s a Macaronesian Echium, almost certainly with Echium simplex as a parent but these hybridize very freely and the pure species are rare in California.

Yes, these are not fruits but bracts (from which are subtended the pedicels).
Pl. see the following GBIF image
