Lagochilus inebrians is a narrow endemic species of the Uzbekistan flora and there are only a few places where it grows. It is rare and little know even within its small native region. As a result of its scarcity and also because of strict state control, it is virtually never seen in the outside world. We believe this is the only source of true Lagochilus inebrians available today.
