Any Salvias that would tolerate mostly shade?

I just love Salvias and am replanting a bed I have that gets mostly shade except for a few hours in the early afternoon for sun. Problem with this area is that it's against my garage (East) then doesn't get much afternoon shade due to large trees (west). It isn't a big area but I would love the name of some Salvias that would grow in these conditions. Am putting in 2 Zephirine Drouhin roses in this space. I have and love Salvia Leucantha, hot lips, Nemerosa, Alan Chickering sp? and some others but all call for lots of sun if I'm correct.

Thanks for any suggestions. Color scheme is pink,purple and/or blue or white if I can get that to work. Stucco on house is almost white. If not, I can change that. I have the 2 z.Drouhin roses and both ends are anchored by potatoe bushes that are trees (purple). Thank you.
