My surprise was a scabiosa (pin cushion flower) that I thought was a Shasta daisy (identified thanks to ecrane3). The plants were in 2 pots that the nursery was going to throw away. I watered them and they came back to life. One of them began to bloom in December! It's blooming its little heart out. The other is not blooming, its in a place that doesn't get as much sun. Will they make it through south Texas heat?
