Salvia is found mostly in Mexico and in Southeast Asia, but it can be found anywhere from Europe to the United States. It is mostly described at a medium sized shrub, but don't confuse Salvia with the herb Sage, a common cooking ingredient. Salvia is used as a hallucinogen drug and is not an illegal drug but is banned in many states because of its negative effect on the body. Salvia is found in many damp areas such as creeks on trails 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.
