May be Salvia 'Waverley' or leucantha, Kasun

Salvia leucantha I think, Kasun, as Nicole (Fleurblue) said.

Saw this plant at a garden I visited last weekend. Neither the lady who grew it or any one in my group could identify it.  "Given to me by an old lady up the road years ago".  I've searched through the RHS Encyc. of Garden Plants (all 1100 pages) and can't find a photo that looks anything like it which means it's very common so no photo is needed in that publication OR it is very rare and I need the combined wisdom of the forum to identify it.  (I suspect the former is the case). Help!
