Surfinias Petunia - Crazy Pink.
I wanted to put a bit of colour in my garden but had promised myself that wouldn't plant the boarders so bought a few plugs of Petunias. They are finally doing better, think to weather improving. Love the pot as it carries on my blue theme and unusual shape.

Thank you Paul, again found pot few years ago. The opening is in a half moon shape. The cube got same time got blue bottle (without wings :-).) Again due to seeing alot of the balls but never a cube.

I love that...it looks like they all came together...sculptural. That blue is very popular in Morocco. When we were there we went to see the Majorelle Gardens in Marrakech

and that was where I saw loads of this colour. If you like blue in your garden, you'd love it! :)

Thanks Karen, I will have to look that up. If I'm honest them going together just happened when I was placing my pots just after we moved in.

Thank you Dottydaisy2. As I said the Karen it just happened, thinking about it I think I thought if I put the smaller with the bigger one then less chance of the dogs knocking them and then thought oh I like that :-)
