Thanks Vickie, Jo Ann, Tiffany and Woofie! I tip my hat to you. Group hug

Yes, they are Blue Pimpernel, Anagallis monelli or Anagallis monelli 'Wildcat Blue', and a purple verbena. All annuals for me.

I can't seem to find the exact pic of the banner I made, but here's some of pics of the two flowers. I know I didn't flip the image to make the banner. I had them in their own containers at the end of our side entry driveway in 2007. I don't know what the exact variety names of them are.

Wow! Those are absolutely gorgeous pots, LOVE LOVE LOVE, TY for sharing these pics!

I've had the reddish orange one before, but didn't know about that blue one. The center matches that Verbena perfectly, MFEO (made for each other!)

And blue pimpernels are easy to grow from seed. Smiling I only recognized them because I grew them for the first time last year. Really pretty, although mine just kind of sprawled all over the ground. I'll have to do a container with them this year!
