Petunias

Just some old fashioned petunias that come up when we work up the dirt here.

@blue23rose Vickie,

I'd love to see a full size pic that you used to make the banner petunias, if you can find it. I looked at the petunias plant database and I saw a pic you submitted, but not one that had a lot of pink flowers (like in the banner) in it.

I liked this one:



Thanks!

Marilyn

Thanks Stan and Jean!

@Marilyn, I will have to look back at my pictures from 2015 or 2016 when I get on my home computer. I'm sure the original is there. I love that picture you found! Thank you for the acorn!

@Marilyn, I had to go back to 2012 to find the original picture I used for the banner. Here it is with a few other pics of the volunteer petunias from over the years. Such a lovely gift of nature that I don't have to buy or plant, just enjoy!

@blue23rose Vickie,

You should post all your beautiful pics to the petunias database. Thank you for finding the pic that the banner was made from.

Sure looks beautiful around your home with all those beautiful petunias!
