1. Dracocephalum tanguticum Maxim. (Lamiaceae) (Wangyal 2020; 'Phrin Las 1987; Molvray 1988 T; Wangchuk 2008)
It has three names according to different potencies at it's stages of development. Particularly, the name pri yang ku is used when the plant gives off a very strong fragrance just before blossoming. At this stage, is it used to relieve lung, liver, and stomach disorders. When the flowers start blooming, the plant is named lu mo gurgum, cures slight intestinal problems, and can be used as a substitute of gurgum (Crocus sativus). When in full bloom the plant is named 'jib rtsi, alleviates fevers, particularly of the stomach and liver, heals wounds and can be used as a substitue for the real 'jib rtsi (Boesi 2014).

2. Callicarpa macrophylla Vahl. (Lamiaceae) Beaty berry (Molvray 1988 Dh)
Dash's identification, cited in Molvray (1988), might reflect the context of the indian name.
