A customer came into the garden center where I work and asked if we had "dolphin flower." She described the plant as about 20 inches tall with a long, funnel-shaped blue flower and that she used it in a hanging basket. She said the plant had just been named recently, although she has seen it in garden centers the last several years.
I have no clue. It's not 'Black & Blue' salvia, plumbago or anything else I could think of to ask her. I've searched online, too, but no luck.
We are in the Midwest, so it's probably an annual or a tender perennial we use as an annual.
Thanks for any ideas.
