    Nadia remembers more about these, except for the name and she wants it, and I have the photos but remember nothing about them. Purple trumpet-shaped flowers, jagged leaf edges - she said in the basket - maybe they're for sale in the shop and we saw them in the trolley outside?

    Undoubtedly an Asarina erubescens hybrid. I'm sure we have the cultivar name somewhere.

    Thank you, Douglas! My fault, I remember that it sounds/starts like acer(what I could keep in memory) but I was looking in Scrophulariaceae family. I was sure I could find with this hint
