Salvia coccinea, Linn. (S. rosea, Vahl). Annual or sometimes perennial and subshrubby: st. herbaceous, erect, 1-2 ft. high, canescent-pubescent: lvs. petiolate, 1-2 in. long, ovate, acute, crenate, base cordate, pubescent above, hoary-tomentose beneath; floral lvs. ovate, acuminate, deciduous: racemes simple; floral whorls remote, 6-10-fld.; calyx tubular-campanulate, striate, often purplish, the teeth acute; corolla scarlet, glabrous. July. S. C. to Fla. and Texas, Mex., W. Indies, Trop. Amer., and cult. and occasionally escaped in India and Austral.—Probably all of the material grown as this is not true to name, possibly the larger part of it is in reality S. splendens. Var. bicolor, Hort., has the upper lip white, the lower lip brilliant carmine-red. Var. lactea, Hort., has white fls. Var. major, Regel (S. filamentosa, Tausch. S. Roemeriana, Hort., not Scheele), becomes a subshrub up to 4 1/2 ft. high, is apt to be less canescent-pubescent and has larger bright scarlet-red fls. June to late autumn. Gt. 7:232. Var. nana, Hort., is a dwarf much-branched form. Var. nana carminea, Hort., is offered in the trade. Var. nana compacta, Hort., is a dwarfer and more bushy form than the variety proper. Var. pseudo-coccinea, Gray (S. pseudo-coccinea, Jacq.), grows 2-4 ft. high, and has the st., petioles, and often the margins of the floral lvs. conspicuously beset with hirsute hairs. Mex. and Cent. Amer. B.M. 2864. J.F. 2:35. Var. punicea, Hort. (S. coccinea var. splendens, Hort. S. superba, Hort.), differs from the type in being larger, slenderer and later-flowering and in having fls. of a brighter red, more velvety and more closely placed. Var. punicea nana, Hort., differs from the variety proper in being dwarfer and the twigs more branched. Var. rosea nana, Hort., is offered in the trade. Var. splendens, Hort., equals var. punicea, Hort. CH
