I had no idea petunias like these existed. I believe they are called starry nights. They look nice on the dinner deck :)

Those are really cool, Rikki!
Thanks.  If I come across the grown-ups, I'll try to get some pictures of them.

Wow!  Those are utterly magnificent, KSM.

The thing about having literally up to a hundred of little petunia flowers in each of the 12 large pots is that the maintenance is having to spend about three hours once a week picking off all the fallen soldiers only to find that the next day offers up a few more. Truly a labor of flowery love. But man, petties are tough in all kinds of weather.

fun fact: petunias are edible.
There was a little girl,
            Who had a little curl,
Right in the middle of her forehead.
            When she was good,
            She was very good indeed,
But when she was bad she was horrid.

Creating a wildflower/native area in the yard. I'm very excited!
Also, my espaliers are coming in tomorrow. I'm so happy and excited I can't stand it!

I have a new lovely Bristlecone in my backyard. He's just beautiful!!!

Nice.  I've got a Ponderosa Pine out back.  About 30 feet high.  Interestingly, there is a short snippet of video showing me at the nursery years ago, picking up the tree in it's pot and walking away to pay for it.

Sounds like a line Robert Plant would write.
Euphemism for butt sex no doubt.

Good ol’ Minotcan Datil peppers almost ready to pick. I think a fat hen pilau, or maybe a St. Augustine Shrimp pilau, is due this weekend.

Merry Christmas
