Thank you Debra.I love this Torenia plantI use to have one years ago,and forgot to bring it in the first winter I had it and thought it had died, but, in the spring I found a bunch of little plants coming up and gowing, but,I finally had lost all of it,so I was very happy when I found a plant at our local nursery that only opens up a few months each spring.its a member of the African violet group, but,it tolerates a little sun very good.Thanks for your comments on the daylilies. MANTIS: yes the TORENIA plant tolerates heat very well, just not a lot of hot sun, but it does like a little sunshine.Have to be careful with the watering and not over water it.Thats how I have killed several of them, over watering.let it dry out before watering again.and yes,it does like a little early morning sunshine or late evening.just not in the hottest part of the day,it needs in the shade, then. This little kitty can be just a barrel of laughs..Every morning when it hears my front door unlock and open, it just comes from out of no where, just jumping up and down like a bucking horse, and it sits there waiting for its food it knows I am bringing. it sits there looking up at me,and moving b ackwards each step I make.It wants to be first to get its head in the bowl to eat, as the mother is always waiting by the step each morning, too.Shes wild and wont let me get too close to her, but, shes very pretty grey tabby. jean

Thanks for the comments. Geechee Sunset was recommend several years ago by a former forum member. It has an unusual way of blooming very deep colors here in the beginning and then as more blooms open, they become lighter. It is a workhorse but this year it needs dividing along with Bahama Butterscotch and a few others. They start to crowd out other plants. No More Tears really surprised me this year with so many multiple blooms in the beginning. Julia

Thanks everyone. Julia, Forsyth FD is not new but I may not have posted it before. The first couple years it was short and way down in the leaves. It has finally gotten with the program! Nancy, Other years Jolyene has not rebloomed for me; hopefully it will this year now that it is more established.

What's Up Down South really catches my eye. Bob likes them tall but most of his tall ones are yellow. Having one in orange red color range would be nice. Trahlyta is really an amazing color. The base color is so gray. I love the name Back to the Fuchsia--a nice play on words. One of my son's favorite movies was Back to the Future. He's not a plant person, but maybe he would like this one. Nancy
