I bought a plant this spring that was called pineapple sage.  I have grown it
once before, but never with the result I had this year.  It is a nice foliage
plant that grew all summer and if you bruise a leaf you get a pineapple
fragrance.

It is now about 3.5 feet tall with a 3' spread and covered with red tubular
flowers--many florets per stem.  The hummingbirds have mostly migrated out of
here by now, but a straggler was visiting this plant today.

Does anyone know the genus and species on what I've described?  I doubt it is
winter hardy.
