Catalina^® Gilded Grape^™ Wishbone Flower Torenia hybrid

Beautiful flowers that needed little care. I have it in a mixed container. I had to water and fertilize in our hot, humid summer but the only other care was to cut it back occasionally because it got too long and was dragging on the ground. Will plant in a larger container next year. I had it in dappled shade and the color really popped.

I have planted this in a hanging basket for the first time this year. I think it is very different and cute but I cannot get it to grow very much. I first tried a more shade setting and then moved it to a partial sun area -------still waiting for it to pick up. It does get fertilized so what can I do?

I planted it last spring and practically ignored it and it bloomed prolifically until late fall.

I would not categorize my thumb as "green," but this flower thrived in hanging baskets on my shaded deck last year, and I'm desperately hunting it down for planting this year. You can't go wrong with this gorgeous plant!

I used this in my 4-H flower bed. It required quite a bit of water.
