They are quite ordinary, but I really like petunias. And they seem to like me. I had volunteer petunias for many years until we cleared out that particular flower bed and had a deck built above it. Granted, the volunteers were all pale lavender and didn't have the variety you can get by buying new each season, but I appreciated that they tried so hard and came back so nicely.
I learned this just now from wikipedia: "Petunia is genus of 35 species of flowering plants of South American origin, closely related to tobacco, cape gooseberries, tomatoes, deadly nightshades, potatoes and chili peppers." How nutty is that?
I know the photo is of tulips but with all the dry and brown going on right now, I thought some green and other colors would be welcome. And we get Grandma's behind as a bonus.
