So I wasn't just seeing things then! I checked on the three plants that are planted out away from the house and thought I saw a pink flower on one while the flowers on the bucket plant in the garden are white. Since I was on my way to doing other things I thought I'd come back later to investigate. Never did.
Hmmm, do you mean one plant with white flowers and another with pink or two different blooms on the same plant?
It's probably due to the open-pollinated nature of the plants. I'm going to collect seeds from both and plant them out again next spring. I'm also going to plant one from the bucket plant out in the yard just to see if being in a bucket is, for whatever reason, why it's growth habit is soooo different from the others. And plant one from the yard plants in a bucket. Inquiring minds want to know.
