RE: Info needed

Try looking up Lisianthus or Eustoma. The Sunset western garden book says: 
biennial or short lived perennial, all zones. A few years ago, I bought a 
few deep purple ones which were marketed here as annuals. As I recall they 
were short lived in terms of bloom and required more watering than I like. 
I have also seen them in floral arrangements. Pretty - everyone who visited 
asked what they were-  but not worth the trouble for me to grow. Good luck.
