25042013GS1 a Lamiaceae member for ID from Sonipat : Attachments (3). 13 posts by 5 authors. This Lamiaceae member was growing along borders of wheat fields in Sonipat. I initially thought it to be Ocimum americanum, having flowers smaller than O. sanctum, hardly 3-4 mm long, but now looking at calyx perhaps it is not. Kindly help in ID. ... should know it. Sir This Mystry is lying unided with me also. In previous discussions it was suggested that this is Anisomeles indica but i was not agree This is most common lamiaceae weed along wheat field borders. Hope to get final id Yes ... It can't be Anisomeles, which has 15-18 mm long corolla, this one has flowers even smaller than Ocimum basilicum, barely 3-4 mm long. This plant is very common in our area, still the case is same with me, I have also stored this in unidentified category, the closest match which I could reach is Ocimum polystachyon Linn. I am also attaching a few pics (5) of this plant recorded in march 2013, from my village fields... Still the id of this plant is doubtful because the pics (2) which I am attaching with this message resemble more with illustration of O. polystachyon on Flora of China... the pics are really bad because they were recorded through a very low end camera.. I think your conclusion about Basilicum polystachyon (O. polystachyon) is more convincing. When I had photographed this plant I had no doubt about its being O. americanum, but when I saw the calyx in photograph (I did not doubt it while photographing, that is why I did not bother to take a close up of calyx) I was in doubt about its being Ocimum, but after checking your photographs and illustration at Flora of China, I am very much convinced about it being Basilicum polystachyon. I think it is better choice with us for now to consider this as Basilicum polystachyon... but my doubts will be cleared only after I get some better comparative pics of the two plants posted above..definitely we can reach to conclusion then..hope to find time very soon.. it looks like some Salvia sp, may be Salvia plebeia Thanks ... I remember you had identified earlier also when it was uploaded from Panipat. We had uploaded it from Morni also. Shows how we tend to forget things soon. Thanks ... for clearing the doubts...I am still unsure about the two of mine pics posted later in this thread... ... to me, two pics posted later looks different. Thanks ... for sharing the opinion.. I will definitely track out that later plant again and post for further clarifications.. Salvia plebeia R.Br. (Lamiaceae). As compared to other Lamiaceae members it has less aroma.
