It is especially common in the Muktinath Valley, and is used in traditional Tibetan medicine.

The petiole is typically about the same length as the leaf blade. The plant puts out numerous long inflorescences holding pale yellow flowers, in whorls of two to six, that have finely spotted maroon markings on the upper lip.〔 The calyx is bright green, hairy, sticky, and glandular, giving off a medicinal odor when rubbed, described by one author as "resembling the distinct odour of a billy-goat," all of which cause animals to avoid it in its native habitat.〔 ==Notes==
