KathyCalculates from Indianapolis, United States
Wave petunias! I usually plant them in 4 big pots on our deck, but this year we planted cucumbers instead and we've been eating some of the best cucs we've ever had! Must be some way to combine the pretty flowers with the delicious fruit! Pink cucumbers??? Anyway, these are gorgeous next to the brick and thank you for showing them to us this morning!

@KathyCalculates: I love your train of thought, pink cucumber, and why the heck not, maybe kids would enjoy them even more, brilliant, artistic Kathy lol oh and thank you!
Judy from Brooksville, Florida, United States
This is wonderful, Lorraine. You captured not only the beautifully happy petunias, but their green leaves and their shadows. Set against the brick, this is a stunning image ... 5 stars from me!

dobbino from Cape Town, South Africa
Beautiful petunias - something I have absolutely no luck with growing - they always come out spindly and tatty. The only time I have green fingers is when I dip them into the spinach soup! This is just so lovely.
