Catalina^® Grape-o-licious^™ Wishbone Flower Torenia hybrid

Can not rave about these Torenias enough. Houston, Texas 9a. Planted in very large pot under Small blush pink Crape Myrtle, with your Accent Plant Silver Bullet. (2) beautiful. Planted 3 plants side of plant spread to other side in a short time and draping over side. Takes one short break and reblooms. Planted 2 in front of bed, spread also, amazing,. Always covered with blooms. Purchasing more next spring.

I ignored this plant when the box of trial plants arrived. It was for shade and I would have to go looking for a place to plant it. When I saw this ignored starter plant about 2 weeks later, a hummingbird attracted me to the plant. It was in a raised bed garden that surounds the patio. So, maybe it could take a bit of noon day sun, so I planted it right then and there. It did get afternoon and morning shade, but midday is sunny for a short while. This beautiful plant thrived. I slowly spread out reaching about 18" across and 10 " high. It was just beautiful and covered with blooms right up until that final fatal frost in mid October. Yes, I would recommend this plant with intense white and purple flowers. And I would like to see the other colors growing. Should I suddenly inherit some more shade, I would consider using this plant. If I had known it would do so well, I might have found a container for it tumble over the edges.
