labiate
Having lip form
Labiate describes plants of the mint family, characterized by flowers with an upper and lower petal that suggest lips—the word comes from the Latin for lip.
Sage, basil, thyme, and lavender are labiate herbs.
The term also describes anything lip-shaped or having lips: labiate shell margins.
