I must be getting back to some kind of normal - whatever “normal” is.
Because as I look out over my backyard at my neighbor’s yard - a neighbor known for the most beautiful gardens, I find myself turning an unbecoming shade of green.
My friends, I have petunia envy.
Specifically, “wave petunias” - which apparently are all the rage and have been all the rage, only I just discovered them last summer. In said backyard neighbor’s backyard.
Look at these beauties - and no this is NOT my yard. My yard is bare of flowers - in the back anyway.
Last summer I had hanging baskets and big square planters and clever little half moon plots leading into my vegetable garden.
This year - nada.
But I get paid tomorrow……

My mum has the most gorgeous hot pink petunias. You have to get some. The colour simply cheers you every time you glance at it. The purple’s nice too. Petunias rule!
And just this weekend I took pics of my flowers and was proud.
Now I have pentunia envy! The ONE thing I didn’t have in my yard. LOL!
Those are lovely!
