I have seeds of the purple one.

aztreelvr that's exactly what i'm hoping for :) I have a 4ft x 160ft section sitting outside of my cedar privacy fence. i had planned to have alot of shrubs planted there last year, but that didn't work out. just as well, thinking about it now it's probably more maintenance than I'd want to keep up with for a section of my property that only the neighbors get to enjoy. I figure I'll plant a few shrubs like hopseed, bougainvillea, and GC sage for interest but basically let the ruellia have the rest. the area is boxed in between my fence and the sidewalk. it might creep into my neighbor's section down the street but he doesn't care, he said he'll just mow it with the rest of his grass. it might creep into the other side of my fence as well, but i don't mind. if it gets out of hand i'll hoe sections of it out every couple weeks when i'm cleaning up the rest of the gardens. i probably will wait until fall to plant them though, i don't even have a drip line set up out there yet and it's getting hot pretty fast this year :( maybe we'll have an early autumn...

sent you an email. i would love some of the pink seeds. i have the purple also and i love them. i was wondering if you are interested in trade for postage on them? thanks vicki

I LOVE my Mexican petunias. We just planted 32 plants in a 44 ft. long x 6 ft wide front flower bed. They are pale pink and purple (planted to alternate color) and are growing so beautiful. NEVER would I pull mine up either . . . they bloom so prolifically and full, and it has made such an awsome, full-of-bloom and colorful flower bed on that one front side of our home (we have a long ranch style home on two acres). We plan to put them all around the house eventually. They are hardy and although we water them regularly, need not much more attention.
