Purple Dreams

Dew drenched Calibrachoa in a hanging basket with lobelia bokeh.

 

Calibrachoa is a genus of plants in the Solanaceae (nightshade) family. They are found across South America from southern Brazil across to Peru and Chile, inhabiting scrub and open grassland.

 

Calibrachoa, commonly known as million bells, are closely related to Petunias. However, there are major differences in chromosomes, corresponding to external differences and fertilization factors that distinguish the two genera.

 

Happy Bokeh Wednesday! Take care and stay safe.

 

Thanks for stopping by and for all of your support -- I deeply appreciate it.
