My Bubble Gum Supternia

Me with my petunias last year

The day before yesterday I posted a picture of one of my parents teacup poodles in this cute blue teacup planter. Well this photo should give you a little more of an idea of it’s size! A couple of years ago I ordered some petunias off of internet and I have been amazed at how well they have grown. It’s like a wall of these pretty pink flowers cascading all around so I just had to order some more. They are a variety of Proven Winners which seems to mean they grow in all kinds of conditions and very hardy plants. They have to be if they are going to survive my iron laden well water!

What you see here is a Supertunia Vista Bubblegum Petunia. I plan to plant them in all my hanging baskets and I will have pink bubble gum everywhere!

 

LMC Brentwood Center

I went to photograph the future home of the new Los Medanos College Brentwood Center. For the past ten years it’s been housed in an old Lucky’s shopping center and even with their upgrades it still felt like the old grocery  store that I used to shop as a kid. Their new home not far from the John Marsh House is going to really feel special. As you can see below there isn’t much yet but I had to post this because it sure is a pretty time of year!
