and only tiny leaves on nodes and small leaf on the top not fall.

what is the reason?

she need a humidity chamber friend!

Im dont think. The guy who send me her told me she usual to uk climate without humitidy chamber,
And the gumitidy is same...

Im with Roze so far that independent from what she is used to, a microclimatw closer to the original one is always better and will increase her chances. Obviously: If she grows a leaf in humidity chamber and you want her to keep that leaf she must be hardened off again. Personally I would try a dome but make sure the humidity doesnt go all the way 90+ but maybe a constant 70 or 80.

From my limited experience growing salvia; that is just environment shock. I would not place the salvia in a humidity dome and leave it at its growing location. The new leaves will be acclimated to your environment/humidity. That being said I have killed my last salvia due to excessive shock as I put it outside in the summer when I first got it in the mail.
