Hi Rich,

   Like others, I was first reminded of a Ruellia, but the leaves are
   much too linear/rugose and the buds seem too 'puckered'.  Then I
   thought of a Browallia, but the petals aren't quite right and, again,
   the leaves aren't right either.  Then I wondered if it could be some
   kind of Abelia or something.  

   So to help narrow things down:

      . Is this a woody plant (i.e. tree, shrub)?
      . How large are the flowers?
      . How tall is the plant?
      . Is this growing outdoors in Connecticut?
      . Is this purplish color true, or is it really more pinkish?

   I know, it's a lot of questions.  :)

Chris
