Heavy rains have beaten back many blossoms, more rain coming in a few minutes. These hardy Mexican petunias stand tall though. Really hard to capture their hue. These grow at the Louisiana School for Math, Sciences, and the Arts, kind of a State Magnet School. They are right next door to my building, and Joe their groundskeeper, is justly proud of his flowers. http://www.sonc.com/friday_july_31_2009.htm -- Regards, Sonny http://www.sonc.com http://sonc.stumbleupon.com/ Natchitoches, Louisiana (+31.754164,-093.099080) USA
