Sharing Pretty Petunia Blooms From My Garden.

Today is Wednesday and I am joining Floral Passions meme. I found this floral folder, forgotten and tucked away in one corner of the computer desktop. These snapshots were taken about a year ago. 
The life span of Petunia is short, about 5 months and these plants have since dried up and no longer in my garden.
 These photos are for sharing with my readers and also for safe keeping in my blog before they go missing from my computer.
 A friend blessed me with these lovely Petunias because she knows I love gardening.
 Took a snapshot of her with the Petunias.  At that time, she was still recovering from her leg injury.
Thank you, friend for blessing me with the Petunias.
This friend acted as a channel of blessing.
  If not for her, the Petunias wouldn't have been in my garden.
 And I wouldn't have enjoyed these beautiful blooms in my garden. 
 The 2 little whites in the centre look like sparkling diamonds.

Linking to Floral Bliss.

I will make your towers of sparkling agate and
your gates and walls of shining gems.
(Isaiah 54:12, The Living Bible-TLB)

  3. Your beautiful petunia just proves your character of great patience in gardening...Nancy. Because, in order to stay that beautiful, old blooms need constant dead heading and constant watering too!...yours even produced two sparkling diamonds to thank you:) - very pretty flowers:)

  17. Your friend looks very familiar to me. The petunias are gorgeous!!! I did not know they do not last long! This would be why ours died, and we did not know why. Your friend is more of a treasure than the flowers.

  23. 5 months isn't long, but I guess it's still plenty of time to enjoy their beauty. Especially if you compare them to cut flowers.
