The vote is not in yet, but I am not sure Picasso would like his name on a flower that does not deserve the kudos that he normally expects.
This new introduction from Proven Winners has the color attributes that you would Ooh and Ah over but so far I am not seeing the performance. I have placed it in three different planters around my garden and even though it is growing well, I am not sure what this flower really looks like. It doesn't seem to open fully and some flowers split when trying to open.
None of my specimens looks like the photo put out by Proven Winners, and one gardener per Garden Rant asked them if they photoshopped it. Proven Winners denied that it was anything but the real thing. It is touted as a vigorous grower supertunia but it won't matter if it does not have a distinguished flower. The colors are wonderful, magenta with a lime green border - so the jury is still out.
What do you think?
