TORENIA HYBRIDA

There was an entire bed outside the Prototype Glass House planted with the Moon Series Torenia hybrida 'Yellow Moon' with yellow petals and purple corolla.

Frankly, this bed has always been an attraction and inspiration to me with its interesting array of annual plants e.g. Verbena, and I always look forward to the next display.

Anyway, more information on this series of Torenia hybrida can be found in the link below:
It is interesting how its pair of stamens are held up like an arch to frame the deeply coloured tubular corolla.
