First Bloom Dwarf Mexican Petunia - Ruellia brittoniana ‘Katie’

This specimen was hitching a ride in a potted plant
purchased two years ago. I had just released it from
it's original confines about a month ago, only to have
nearly missed it's first display.
Another day and it would have gone the way of most
spent blooms.

Tired and spent but still beguiling.
