Calibrachoa @Dahlia ? Million Bell?
What's with those names? The first, I have no idea how to pronounce. The second, seems lame. Too sciency to too ... Bells? Okay but we could almost call @Shades-of-Oregon 's lilies, bells. Looking up the spelling of Calibrachoa – I see that it's not just in the petunia family but there is now a hybrid.
Nightshade!
. There is a volunteer petunia in the potatoes this year. Ooohh, it may be a hybrid! I'm kidding. That seems almost unimaginable. No GMO's! We may dig the spuds today. With a little cooperation from clouds mitigating the searing afternoon sunshine, some Fall greens could go in that ground. I'd like to avoid disturbing that white petunia but it may not be possible.
There are a few deep red snapdragons that have volunteered here and there. Two are beside a tomato plant. Pansies and other violas are scattered all over, this year. The volunteer Rudbeckia is back, although a smaller plant than in 2023. I may have stepped on it since it decided to show up right where I store sprinklers.
