Neighbours talking over the garden gate has long been a tradition. They share gardening tips, complain about the weather and pests yet are ever eager to discuss their gardens. That is what I had in mind when creating this blog. So stop by my garden gate to find out the latest happenings in my garden.

Happy Gardening!

Magenta Madness® Petunia

Magenta Madness® Petunia
June 25, 2010


The Magenta Madness® petunias are in full bloom, quickly filling their container.  The blooms on this petunia are large and colourful.  I love the gorgeous lilac colour of the blooms!  They are so bright and cheery.  Did you know petunias attract hummingbirds?  They do although so far I haven't seen any hummingbirds flitting around the garden yet.  I planted more containers of petunias this year so perhaps I'll see a hummingbird yet this year.

Happy Gardening!
