Salvia gesneriflora (sometimes spelled Salvia gesneriiflora) is a herbaceous perennial or subshrub native to mountainous provinces of the Sierra Madre Oriental in Mexico, growing at 7,500-10,000 ft elevation. It was named in honor of 15th century Swiss botanist Conrad Gessner, for whom the genus Gesneria and family Gesneriaceae are also named. The long tubular flowers of this salvia resemble Gesneria flowers. It is a popular ornamental plant.
