    I think this might be some kind of sage but doesn't smell sagey. What do the experts think? Thanks!

    Could be but this was being sold in the herb section and it has a savory kind of smell to it.

    Many plants if stressed can show Anthocyanin pigments.

    That is good to know. I got it on clearance for 50cents and I like to revive things that people have given up on. ha
