Wild Petunia, Violet-Flowered Petunia
(Petunia integrifolia, Petunia violacea)
This is the wild species from which the modern petunias have descended.
The trailing plants have 2" wide, rosy-purple, trumpet-shaped flowers. They are lovely at the edge of a garden path, tumbling over rocks, or growing in containers.
Petunia integrifolia is a tender perennial, hardy in zones 9-11. But it's usually grown as an annual. It blooms quickly from seed, and it may self sow in warm spots where it's happy.
