Bought  these in the bargain tray in GC, the first grows like Richardii, doesn't seed so I will layer it, but I can't find it in the Google pics of Lobelia.

the second one I haven't a clue, it's got big buds and seed pods, as big as the flowers.

    First one is a scaevola.

    Don't know the second one though. image

    It does look like that, but mine seems to be sterile, it's not setting seeds.

    Web site says sow seeds in Spring. This one will have to be cuttings I think.

    thank you for ID.

    It's a bit difficult to see, because the flowers of the second mystery plant seem to be a bit damaged, but I wonder if it might possibly be a mimulus.

    No idea what variety though, because there are so many of them.image

    I'm growing the second one for the first time here - just checked, and the label says its a torenia (mines a purple one, but buds and leaves look the same).

    Brilliant, thanks to both of you.

    The flowers are dying, I didn't want to dead head as I am hoping it will set seeds for next year.
