Petunias!

Ok, I only have one pic so far (and it was taken on the mobile phone), but I just had to share this stunning burgandy petunia! They are all coming into flower and are the large variety.

Let's see your petunia pics :D

 

Very pretty!

 

woooh!!! I have some of the third one - it's a really nice colour. Is the last one blue??? :eek:

 

I was gonna say! I have never seen a blue petunia before.

I have some new buds coming oup on the petunis that I have grown from seed... I keep going outside all eager waiting to see what the flowers are like!! hehe

 

Here's a Homebase special, don't recall the name, just liked the colour and the frills

 

It is very pretty- frilly doubles are all very well but I'm told they don't produce much pollen for insects. This one has the advantage of both

 

@Bobj, I usually get my bedding plants from Homebase, they are nearest; previous years I've mostly gone for the stripey ones or a mixed box. I like nemesia and lobelia too, didn't see any nemesia this year though, probably went too early.

That pic does not show them at their best, the rain and wind last week did them no favours. I'll do a bit of tidying up and dead heading znd take another pic when they start to look better.

 

I love this pic!

 

its a baby red with eye.

 

Awww they are all so pretty! I think next year I am going to have to start buying / growing some of the different varieties like I have seen here

 

My Million Bells - I think next year I am going to put these in my hanging baskets as they are so sweet and pretty :D

 

My petunias that I grew from seed (yay! :D ).. oh and they are purple really, but like the ones above have turned out blue on the camera!

 

oops sorry about two photos
the wind ,fog ,and mist of sea is doing them no favours
