Description

The listing, MEXICAN PETUNIA has ended.

The widely adaptable dwarf Mexican petunia (Ruellia brittoniana) has been named a Texas Superstar by Texas A&M University*. The tall upright, dark green plants with lance-shaped leaves and bright purple, tubular flowers were in full bloom in the hottest part of the summer and showing no signs of being neglected, although they were certainly in a tough location."
Mexican petunias are very adaptable and will tolerate wet and dry soils. They prefer full sun but will tolerate shade; however, since flowering is light-related, the plants will flower less in shade.
Mexican petunias and their cultivars are perennial and will remain green under conditions of light frost. However, the foliage will die when a severe frost occurs, and the plant will go dormant until spring..
****WINNER will received 2 small root**** This one root will produce many new one's .,Some say it is invasive But if you have a tree you would like to put something around this is the plant for you!!!

I really don't know..We have had a freeze here before but I covered them so I really couldn't tell you! They will grow in containers and in the spring you can put them out again.
