Note to self. I love this trailing silver grey Dichondra (Silver Falls). A definite keeper for containers. The purple flower is Torenia 'Purple Moon'.
Don't you just love Gerbera daisies? They're such a happy flower. 
I have a new favorite flower (this, of course, changes from moment to moment)... Diascia 'Genta Pink' (also called twinspur). All this is from 3 starter plants. It has a mounding habit and has been covered with flowers since I bought it in early May. I'm anxious to see how it does throughout the rest of the season. I did learn one disappointing fact online this morning. I purchased it as a perennial, but for my zone it's considered a tender perennial and treated as an annual. However, it's definitely worth buying each year.

Yes!! I love Gerberas too -- they are indeed happy flowers. I planted three different colors in my front bed (coconut, watermelon, and pineapple), and have five large pink ones in a vase on my counter as I type. I think the 11th consecutive day of 100+ degree temperatures has finally done in my coconut colored one, though, despite careful watering -- it hasn't recovered from its wilt two days ago. : (
