My wife and I went out to the local farmer's market and got some vegetable plants and hanging baskets for the front porch. The plants are a Pink Double Petunia and are quite full. I did a little dead heading and they are looking super. Did you notice the photographer in the window?
The pair of baskets adorn our front porch. The hostas are really putting on a show on the North side of the house. Some on the other side got burnt from two frosts last week.
This flower has some beautiful blooms.
The doubled up bloom makes this really special.
Check above to see some other great flower photos.
Hi Tom, I do love your new hanging baskets--but what I love even more are the HOSTA... WOW---those are incredible.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day --and Memorial Day..

ReplyDeleteThe flowers are gorgeous and it was nice to catch a glimpse of the photographer. I sure hope you're finished with frosts for the spring!
ReplyDeleteYou seem to have done the right thing at the market. I especially enjoyed the last one.
ReplyDeleteWow. What a lush, healthy looking plant. The blooms look so big! Great shot and yes, I did see the photographer in the window.
