ReplyDeleteI am so behind in blogging. The flowers are gorgeous. Have a great Sunday.
ReplyDeleteIt's gorgeous! Definitely looks like a petunia too.
ReplyDeleteRuelia is gorgeous, but she is very sensitive. At least here, in our country, the strong wind causes great damage to flowers.
ReplyDeleteHave a fine week!
Delicate and pretty!
