RED,WHITE,& BLUE was almost DEAD, WHITE, & BLUE

First the good news: all the plants are still alive. Now the bad news: I forgot to water the new bat-faced Cuphea for just ONE DAY. It curled and went into 'crispy' mode before I was able to save it. Thankfully I took photos before it lost all its pretty red flowers. Happy 4th of July a little early.
Blackfoot daisy(white), Blue Daze (blue) and Periwinkle (red). Oh, and a small Forget-Me-Not that I almost forgot..uh..moving on...LOL

My patriotic flowers!

Here's the RED bat-faced Cuphea before it became...
 DEAD, white and blue. I'm happy to report that she is still alive after I put her in my plant hospital's IC unit.
A view of the IC unit and the Patient under a grow light. Patient is recovering well but she lost her flowers.
Here's the Red, White, and Blue display and the Cuphea during happier days. I wanted tiny red flowers since they blend so nicely with the Agave motif.

Here's another view. Maybe I should buy a second Cuphea while the first is recovering. What would you do?
In the meantime, happy 4th of July from my garden!
Thanks for stopping by.
