Life, uncorked.
Yes, I know. I’m working on a new theme this weekend. Please be patient!

It seems I’m all about purple flowers these days! Go out and enjoy nature right out your door this weekend. Have fun!
Pretty purple petunias…say that 3 times fast!!
It’s that time of year. Time to put out the annuals!
“We” put out all shades of purple this year.
From delicate lilac colored petunias…
… to brilliantly colored candy cane striped petunias.
and everything in between!
I love petunias. My grandmother always had them edging her driveway and in her flower pots along her front porch. I remember the brilliant displays and wonderful scent of those flowers. She’d plant them in every summer. We’d make homemade ice cream and play shuffle board and go downtown to the city park for Chuck Wagon Days. Sigh. What wonderful memories. All brought rushing back by my pretty purple petunias.
What flowers hold an emotion connection for you?
I went out and grabbed some photos when the rain finally stopped. Okay, aren’t these pretty?
But what ARE they? SuperGuy planted them and is nowhere around now to tell me what they are. Sometimes he sticks the little white plastic thingie in the ground behind the plant so I can figure out what they are. No luck this time. I do remember he said they were a perennial. Any idea what they are?
He planted them this past weekend and “asked my opinion” on where he should plant them. :rofl: Like he listened to any suggestion I made?? Are they in the backyard in my zen garden where I suggested they’d look nice? Well, no, they aren’t. Good thing I didn’t REALLY care. But don’t tell SuperGuy! Why does he bother to ask my opinion if he’s going to ignore it anyway? I ALWAYS listen to his opinion on things 🙄 well, sometimes. Well, I’m sure I listened to his opinion at least once. I’m sure of it…
Anyone know what these flowers are? And wouldn’t they have looked nice back in my zen garden?? Such a nice color!
