Default Torenia reseeding

I should have just let them grow because it's a nice plant...I've never seen
anything ressed like this. ?


They self-seeded like crazy after the first year I had them in my garden
and in a planter. This year, I have yet to see one.

OTOH, this year I have a huge patch of volunteer ageratum, both blue
and pink, as well as red salvia. I have planted ageratum for years and
never seen anything like this. But all my annual dianthus overwintered
too, so I suspect it is because the winter was unusually warm.

Under our bird feeder, the sunflower seed came up as a huge patch of
sunflowers this year, too.
