Nice!
I've just sown some Ruellia seeds.

It looks very nice with the mulch. Does your Ruellia have blue or mauve flower? I have the mauve flowering one. I have them popping up everywhere....you will, too. :>)

Thanks Meanie. This is another plant that has bloomed all summer!

I keep looking for seedling to make sure I don't pull them out. I haven't seen any so far. Maybe spring time???
Mine is Mauve as well.

I have many seedlings popping up all the time. My plant is very full, however, it doesn't have many flowers. I think it needs more sun.

My plant is not very full but it's been loaded with flowers every day for the past few months.

You plant is in full sun, correct?

Yes.

I'm glad you understood what I meant. lol!

I guess I'll have to pull my plant out and move it into more sun.

lol...

I can't wait until mine fills out and is full of flowers! Next summer I guess (I hope).

I must admit I hate disturbing my plants that are in the garden, sometimes you just have to though. There is a Hibiscus that needs moving....I keep putting if off. I might just leave it where it is....I have found seedling from it that can be moved.

I'll take a photo of my plant soon (I've been very busy the last week).

Yes, I agree with you, I don't like to disturb my plants in the ground...however, sometimes it has to happen. I think Ruellia species move very well. That's been my experience, anyway. I have a lemon verbena in the front yard I've been wanting to move for over a year. I haven't found out how well this plant moves, though. I guess I just have to do it. :>)
