PETUNIA

Thanks to my colleague who recommended that I grow a Petunia at home.

I purchased this potted Petunia x hybrida from the Solanaceae Family for about 2 weeks now and it has been rewarding me by flowering everyday and brightened up this area beside my neighbour's house. Hopefully with this plant, my neighbour would be more tolerant towards my frequent gardening outside her house. Interestingly, I almost killed it by overwatering it from the top for days. Luckily, it seemed to be fine now.

Before I reach my house everyday, I would be greeted with this beauty, which never fails to perk me up.
