Could any one tell me which flower this is called? We had it last year in one of our hanging planters and we absolutely loved it. However, there was no name tag for the plant. We want to find the same plant this year. Could anyone help?!

Thanks very much!!!

Calibrocha or million bells, they are like a mini petunia

I don't know what state you live in but I just saw those last night at our Home Depot here in Vicksburg, MS.

They are all over the place here at every garden center, Lowes, Home Depot, etc, they're a very popular plant and shouldn't be hard at all to find anywhere in the country. Internationally I'm not sure, but definitely in the US they're everywhere.

It looks like a petunia to me. Mom grows wave petunias every year, which are really fun. She has barrels in which she plants them, and they really fill out. By the end of the summer, the barrels usually disappear because the flowers grow so much!

No, it's Calibrachoa--they are closely related to petunias and look a lot like them except the flowers are a bit smaller.

It's a Calibrachoa as a few people have already mentioned.
