Salvia is found anywhere from Asia all the way to the United States. It is mostly described at a medium sized shrub. Don't confuse Salvia with the herb Sage ,a common cooking ingredient. Salvia is found in many damp areas new creeks on on trials and grows off its own dead branches. The first reported sighting was in Huautla de Jimenez in a extremely damp ravine near a coffee farm. <ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salvia "Wikipedia/Salvia].Web.
