And, especially stunning in the garden!
It is not a color that you see that often among flowers. But, putting them in some companion planting can be outstanding. Contrasting with a bright color works well.
Also, planting them in a focal point is especially nice. These are planted at the corner of the driveway and is very noticeable with lots of Oozes and Awes! Since I have not bought any garden supplies or plants this year I thought it would be fun to show you these unusual black petunias from a couple years ago.
And, this was a fun project from the past. Do you ever find that for various reasons you don't continue using some creation from the past?
Hope you are enjoying a pleasant weekend. Hopefully, I will be able to go to a garden center before long and see what mischief I can get into! I know I will not have any difficulty buying ~~~~~ but getting the plants into the ground is the issue.
It's pretty quiet over here but hotter than I prefer!

A few years ago our local nursery had a lovely display of black and orange pansies planted around ceramic jack o'lanterns. My poor flowerpots are looking very sad, but I decided not to replant them until we return from our vacation since no one will be here to water and care for them while we are away.
