Mexican petunia or ruellia One Young Plant - grows Purple Flowers propagates easily low maintenance

 

One Quality Young Plant
Arrives bare-root (no pot or soil)

Ruellia grows best in full sun, but also grow remarkably well in part shade. The Mexican petunia thrives in moist, well-drained, organic-rich soils and performs well in poorer soils, too. The deep green foliage with hints of burgundy is attractive and works well in combination plantings. The leaves are narrow, pointed and reach almost a foot in length on large varieties. The flowers are borne in clusters on forked branches. The flowers are tubular or funnel-shaped and may reach 2 inches in length. The long bloom period is usually early summer through fall.

Definitely perennial in zone 8, and have been told they return in zone 7. The good news for colder areas is they make good annuals like a real petunia.

 

They are also easy to propagate. You can divide clumps, take root cuttings and plant by seed. Stems are easy to root in moist soil or sand. Another big plus is that they are disease and pest-free, making them environmentally friendly.

Some daffodils now have pure white petals surrounding lemon yellow or even orange trumpets. The rule of thumb is to plant the bulbs twice as deep as they are tall and plant them three inches apart. After the sword shaped leaves start to die back, some people leave the bulbs in the ground. Others dig them up and keep them in onion bags in a cool and dry place till they're ready to be planted in the fall. Daffodils are deer-resistant.
