# Flowers That Look Like Petunias
-
Bower Vine
-
The Bower Vine, sometimes called Pandorea, has characteristics similar to petunias. It became popular in the 14th and 15th centuries as a trellis plant. The vine does well in both full and partial sun, and needs careful tending--particularly proper watering. Fertilizer is necessary to help the plant achieve its full potential.
Calibracoa
-
The Calibracoa plant, also known as Million Bells and Lirica Showers, is fairly new to the gardening scene; the plant has been recognized only since the mid-1990s. This plant has tubular flowers, similar to petunia blooms, that grow on trailing stems. Calibracoa plants are about 1/4 the size of a standard petunia plant, so they are a good choice if you like petunias but have limited space. Million Bells can thrive in up to a 1/2 day of full sun.
Katie Ruellia
-
Another flower with similarities to the petunia is the Katie Ruellia. Katie Ruellia blooms are tubular, but have a slightly more trumpet-like shape than petunias. They are also drought resistant, so you won't have a problem growing them in hot, dry climates.
Gold Star Esperanza
-
The most popular flower in the Tecoma Stans family is the Gold Star Esperanza, which can grow up to 6 feet in height and 4 feet in width. With tubular blooms and an abundance of green leaves and vines, this plant makes a spectacular showing in front yard garden spaces. This plant can handle a lot of sun, but does require regular water and fertilization for optimal growth.
