They look a lot like the Dolcissimo Fragolino petunias - which I love .. perhaps they are one in the same?
Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

Actually, this is a cross between a petunia and calibrachoa, in fact, today's new article by Joannabanana gives a nice overview of this new genus.

I found the article interesting and It's amazing how they look so much alike. Here are pictures of the Dolcissimo

Yes, many come in similar color ranges but the blooms are much smaller than petunias.

That first one is also sold as Petunia 'Dolce Flambe'
and the second one is Grandiflora Petunia (Petunia 'Dolce Fragolino')

I love the Dolcissimo's mixture of colors
