Ruellia brittoniana 'Chi Chi' (Hardy Pink Petunia)

Sun to Part SunZone: 7-10, possibly colder 24" tall Origin: USA

Web-Only! 'Chi Chi' is a dynamite ruellia from TX...a seedling selection of R. brittoniana from plant guru Scott Ogden. The narrow, very dark green foliage clothes the 2' tall stem, topped with 1" pink petunia-like flowers from early summer through fall. R. 'Chi Chi' has performed well in both moist and dry conditions. Everyone who sees 'Chi Chi' wants to take her home...perhaps they've been watching too many soap operas on the Spanish Channel. Arriba! We do not recommend these for tropical or semi-tropical moist climates where they grow and multiply too well. Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
