Can someone identify this flower? [Yes! I do believe that Jane nailed it: Torenia fournieri AKA wishbone flower. It looks so much like johnny-jump-up but there are subtle differences.]

I think it's a pretty common annual but I can't remember what it's called.

Even though the petals are turned inward, it looks like a pansy to me. They thrive in partial shade and do not like full sun.
