Plant - does anybody knows what it is?

***super_nova*** — Wed, 07 Jan 2015 03:09:29 GMT

I was looking for the one with most buds and did not notice it had no tag. Now I have no idea what it is and what position it hould be in 😞 Does anybody recognises it?

I recognise it.....I had it in blue. It was in a pot and a local stray cat used to sleep on it and finally killed it. It dies down over the winter.

For the life of me I cannot remember the name of it though and the label has long since gone missing.

I googled that name poddster, to find out more about that plant, and no result. It is spelt right? Does it have a common name?

A plant with an enormous pink petal? That your translation?

I had one in pale purple.

How'd you find it?

kadesnana — Wed, 07 Jan 2015 05:02:36 GMT

I can see why it is called a Balloon flower ( flower before it opens). Balloon flower is easier to remember than its botanical name. It is very pretty
