Last year I started my right hand side flower bed with Mexican petunias. I had to put them all in the graveyard due to a bad Mealybug infestation. I immediately replaced them by adding in Rosemary to my garden. Then I added a different Flowers. This year look at what just popped up in the middle of my Rosemary? Not one but TWO Mexican petunias! I can’t think of a better place for them to grow. Lol.  
I look at these two as BONUS PLANTS!🤗
