Petunias and mini-petunias

137/365
May 16, 2010*

*New rule for my 365 postings: the picture may not be from the day up in order. If I miss a day or just like multiple pictures from one day that I like better than another nearby day, I'll post that one. This is the case for picture 137.

This is one of my favorite flower baskets this summer. It has million bells (which look like miniature petunias, and may be closely related but I'm not sure) and some red petunias. I can only plant petunias in containers because our endless snail population eats them to the ground in a few days if I plant them in the yard. It takes them a while to get into the planters so I have a chance to grab them and toss them into the beer bowl of death.
