Mexican Petunia (Ruellia) - Katie's Dwarf Blue

Ruellia brittoniana 'Katie's Dwarf Blue' is a delightful perennial that brings a vibrant splash of blue to your garden. This compact variety is known for its striking, trumpet-shaped flowers that bloom profusely throughout the warmer months, creating a stunning visual display.

The lush, green foliage serves as a perfect backdrop for the captivating blue flowers, which attract pollinators such as butterflies and hummingbirds.

This perennial thrives in a variety of conditions, preferring full sun to partial shade. It is adaptable to different soil types, though it flourishes in well-drained soil. Once established, Katie's Dwarf Blue is quite drought-tolerant, requiring minimal maintenance while providing lasting beauty.
