If the ID is right I think this is considered as an endangered sub-species in your region - could you include an image of the underside of the leaf and check for hairs on the stem
Thanks

Yeah looks like P.linifolia, the floral tubes seem pretty hairy. Subspecies Caesia seems right based on form and calyx shape.
