Dear Pankaj ji,
I feel this is some Nepeta sp. Could be Nepeta connata or N. laevigata  ??
regards
Prashant

[Dr Pankaj Kumar]

Yes sir, I think I over looked. This is not Lagotis at all. Should be
some Nepata. Dracocephalum has petiolate leaf.
My apologies.
Pankaj

Hi, Singh ji,

N. elliptica not mentioned in Concise Flowers of Himalayas by Oleg Polunin & Adam Stainton. Can it be Nepeta connata as per this book.

Garg ji

Nepeta connata looks similar but has much narrower linear to linear-lanceolate leaves.
