Some pics from the US now...
Ajuga reptans captured at USA, Chicago Brookfield Zoo in May 2013.
Please validate
same q. how do you know the exact id. did you get the guidebook at the zoo that tells you what they planted
or was it labelled?
I managed to find the label pic....
This is label from the Chicago Bot Gdn.
I don't have the label from the Brookfield Zoo, I might have labelled the ones from Brookfield Zoo since they looked similar to the one from Chicago Bot Gdn (2nd pic above).
Please advice...

Cultivated, garden plant seen in Nairobi, Kenya.
Yes ...

Ajuga macrosperma Wall. ex Benth. or some cultivar ?? 

I think closer to images at rather than those at Ajuga reptans L. rather those at Ajuga macrosperma Wall. ex Benth. 

Ajuga reptans L. ? Then it could be introduced as not listed in Nepal .

Was it cultivated or can it be an escapee from cultivation? 

It could be planted as it was in a garden !

Observations so far in efi are also of cultivated plants for this species.
