Beautiful and easy

I use petunias for my planter on my deck. They are beautiful and drought resistant. Also last until early November in the Illinois weather. I tried them out last year and liked them so much I ordered them again. I also purchased other colors. Buying them again for the years to come.

All went well

Plants, a little smaller than expected, have done well and are both blooming and spreading.
