    Found this on the mark down rack. No tag. It looks like either a small petunia or a big Calibrachoa! I loved the green edges. The flowers are no more than 1.5 inches.
    Any ideas?

    It's a Petunia hybrid called Supertunia® Pretty Much Picasso

    That is really cool looking. I haven't been plant shopping in about a month and I really want to go this weekend. Hope I can find one that pretty.

    Definitely not your usual tunia. I wonder if we can expect megatunia and eXtremetunia to follow? Hybridizing anyone?

    Toni was absolutely right. I stopped to get some mulch today and over on the "regular priced" side of the store was a table full of these. I wonder if someone put this one on the mark-down rack by mistake? Oh well... it's mine now! :-D
