Petunia is a trumpet shaped, widely-cultivated genus of flowering plants of South American origin, in the family Solanaceae. The popular flower got its name from French, which took the word petun 'tobacco' from a Tupi-Guarani language. Most of the varieties seen in gardens are hybrids (Petunia x hybrida).

Beautiful!
That's an interesting splotched petunia (lovely color, too). I can't grow them now since it's too hot here. I grow mine in the winter.
Happy monday to you too!
Petunia is so nice. I have the same flowers in my backyeard.

The Petunia is interesting with the waterdrops on it. So colorful.
