When I was a kid, my mother fixed me scrambled eggs for breakfast almost daily for years. Now, decades later, I can't stand scrambled eggs. This just goes to show how important variety is in all things, including gardening. As long as I can remember, people who wanted blooms for shade have depended on impatiens. They're great flowers but don't come in blue. After a decade or so of planting the same thing, you ought to try something new. I have just the thing--a summer annual called wishbone flower (Torenia fournieri). This plant loves the heat. From spring until fall, it's smothered with flowers in blue, purple, rose, pink, or white. Wishbone flower does great in borders, pots, and window boxes--just keep the soil moist. Duchess excels in shade, while the trailing Summer Wave Hybrids like partial sun or shade. If you'll give them a try this summer, I'll vow to give scrambled eggs another chance.
