I do think it is the plant food, Vera. I've been feeding all the potted plants a 1/2 strength complete food (Vigoro, from Home Depot) once a week except on the rainy weeks, and when they first went into the pots, a half strength root stimulator and they are getting too big considering our bad weather. Check out the petunia pics on my album in Picasa, towards the bottom of the album. They are supposed to be Petunia Grandiflora Sky Blue Dreams and Appleblossom Dreams, both F1 hybrids, from seeds I collected from my plants last year. The bigger leaves are nearly 8 inches from base to tip. And I remember complaining how puny they were just a few weeks ago :) Here is a link that might be useful: Picasa Web Album

Very pretty! Seeing the raindrops of the flowers is making me feel nice & cool! I think I like S. Double Classic best, it always has wonderful blooms.

Thinking about this question and the other recent QOtDs, I realize that my current addiction is white-on-white fabrics. I used them in the quilt I just finished and will use them in the Christmas wall hanging too (a soon-to-be-started project). Even though I often buy fat quarters, with these whites I've been buying them by the yard and in two cases I even bought 3 yards! It's so unlike me! But I really like how crisp and bright they are and they come in so many patterns too.

Indy Phantom. It and Becky Lynn look so much alike. Judge Roy Bean with Kent's Favorite too sneaking in the picture Labyrinth Lake Norman Clump Laura Harwood, second year. The first year just a couple of very short scapes and not well budded. This year nice and tall like it should be, many scapes and buds. Liberty Banner, such a beauty. Celeste, you were so right about it! more below
