hallo all,
i observe the same thing, many times flowers at one place have a bit diff.
shade that at the other place. Is it perhaps the soil, that affects the color a
bit? Afterall the soil contains diff. minerals at diff places. even the color
of the soil is diff at diff places.
What doe experts say?
Regards
nalini

Yes I also thought that the colour appears more blue. Generally it is purple
or violet in different shades or may be even complete white. A commonly planted
climber which grows to a large extent and also to uncontrolled great heights.
An Acanthaceae family member!
Anyway it just looks awesome with good thick green foliage intermingled with
bright flowers almost throughout the year.
