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?

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.
