When I saw your post I started thinking about it Obviously as Scarlet sage. Two species are called as that. Then I searched Salvia splendens vs. salvia coccinea in Google. Following link describes the difference: http://www.homeandgardenideas.com/gardening/herbs/care/how-grow-scarlet-sage The leaf shape Lance like in S. splendens Triangular in S. coccinea The above pictures go in favour of S.coccinea. Will wait for others to comment Dr Satish Phadke
