* Scientifically: Salvia is a genus of flowering plants, so the Tamil name would depend on the specific species.
* Common Usage: In Tamil, people might refer to specific salvia varieties by their common names. For example, "சாம்பிராணி" (Saambraani) is the Tamil name for "Sage," a common salvia species.
* Local Names: Depending on the region, different Tamil names might be used for different salvia species.
If you're looking for a specific type of Salvia, please provide its scientific name (e.g., Salvia officinalis, Salvia splendens), so I can try to find a suitable Tamil translation.
