Everybody tells me it's TWO flowers, but I only planted one!


Nursery says the open one is Petunia. *Is it?


What is the other one?




(Hope this works; I'm kinda new at uploading pix to NGs)

Yes, the larger flowers are petunias.
I believe the others are either torenia or nemesia.
(I had some in mixed flower pots this summer but
they died and I can't find the name stake.)

Thanks, Gloria and David.

Gloria, since you had this plant -- when should I deadhead
and how much? The torenia/nemesia is getting leggy.
