Anyway, it is Ruellia caroliniensis or wild petunia and it graces the top of my new rainbarrel. It grows from the Carolinas to Texas and Florida.This plant is not related to the garden petunia. It is easy to grow with a lavender flower. Adds color to a wildflower garden and are butterfly attractors. They vary in size and growth habit. I'll post a pic when it blooms again.« Return to the thread "Show us your garden 11"
