There are several pretty plants of this family 

 that are useful for bedding out, though more often 

 seen in the greenhouse. A few are annual, and the 

 other perennial species may be treated as such, but 

 coming from a warm climate like Mexico they 

 must have a warm sunny position, where they will 

 flower profusely during the hottest months.
