I wonder if anyone can identify the burgundy coloured plant in the attached photo? It was bought at a service station with no label and no-one could say what it was. Getting a bit fed up of plants being sold without being named!
I take it back, the chap who posted this also posted it last year and is STILL trying to identify it. He said it was definitely real as he saw it growing over a period of time. The search continues! Someone has suggested some sort of Lobelia?

Evidently so! It's someone else's plant.
Thanks for the reply
No idea, but I want one!
Privet, have you tried pulling it out of the pot, I dont think its real, its there to enhance the petunia and begonias.
Lyn the photo is from a Facebook group, taken last year at a motorway service area.
Ah! Thanks Mark, thought it may have been a WUM!
So sorry to waste everyone's time, somebody is obviously having a joke on me! Thanks everyone!

The base leaves are lobelia-like but the manner of growth isn't.

Hm, I thought that too. Whatever it is, I would like one!
