'''''Salvia hians''''' is a mound forming perennial, native to the [[Himalayas]] from [[Pakistan]] to [[Bhutan]]. It is common in Kashmir, growing at {{convert|2400|to|4000|m|ft|abbr=on}} on open slopes and forests.

''Salvia hians'' forms a mound reaching {{convert|3|ft|m}} by {{convert|2|ft|m}} wide. The leaves are typically lanceolate, slightly hairy, and grow up to {{convert|10|in|cm}} long. The flowering stems are held well above the foliage, with dusky violet flowers spaced at the end of the stem. The small calyx (less that {{convert|.5|in|cm}}) is very sticky and an unusual dark brownish red color. The flower has a gap between the two lips, described by the specific epithet, ''hians'', which means 'gaping'.<ref name="Clebsch">{{cite book|last=Clebsch|first=Betsy|coauthors=Carol D. Barner|title=The New Book of Salvias|publisher=Timber Press|year=2003|pages=143-144|isbn=9780881925609|url=http://books.google.com/books?id=NM0iwB8GrQYC&pg=PA143}}</ref>

In India, the roots of ''S. hians'' are used as a stimulant; in Nepal they are reportedly used as a remedy for dysentery.<ref name="Kletter">{{cite book|last=Kletter|first=Christa|coauthors=Monika Kriechbaum|title=Tibetan Medicinal Plants|publisher=CRC Press|year=2001|page=127|isbn=9780849300318|url=http://books.google.com/books?id=ODrIXj-48RsC&pg=PA127}}</ref>
