Hi,

I just bought this beautiful plant at the nursery the other day. It wasn't labeled, but I'm pretty sure it's called 'million bells', kind of like a mini petuna but without the yucky sticky branches. I want to put it in this pot on the pillar, but am wondering if it's too hot for it? This spot BAKES during the day and the wall makes it even hotter. The plant files here on Daves say to keep it consistently moist which may be a problem in this heat. The pots are all on drippers that get watered every 2 or 3 days. I can't turn it up or I'll flood the other pots.

What do you think? Is this a wise or a poor choice for this spot? I have one in the front of my house that survived the winter despite being labeled as an annual, and it's just blooming it's heart out again! Love these!

Thanks, Christina :)
