Didn't catch it blooming, but I pulled a dried flower head loaded with seed from it today.

Is this a "mutation" from your own plant or a bought/cultivated variety? It's lovely :) What color are the blossoms? :)

RE: variegated petunia sport

This is a sport from the green foliaged plant that you can see to the left. It was from a flat of dark velvety blue blossomed petunias.
Its got a stable variegation pattern and the white foliage is doing stellar in full sun. Its just taking off. I hope it proves vigorous and I hope I can find a way to over winter it. I also worry that it wouldn't manufacture enough food to survive away from its green parent. But, we'll see.
