This was outside a pub or maybe in a hanging basket in Covent Garden. The stalls were not open, they were not even being set up, I was there that early… but someone had come through and watered the flowers.
Thanks Carla for telling me that this is a petunia :-)

yes! a flower I KNOW! :o)
This is a variety of Petunia
Some of my favorites for their vibrant colors. I planted a new group this past summer that were green and purple.
Haha, thanks Carla… I knew it was a flower and that was it. I never knew that I have seen a petunia ;-)
I shall add a link to you before long. :-)
I appreciate you stopping by and taking the time to comment :-D

I have a photo I took when I lived down in Tennessee….of one of these of this color…with a HUGE swallowtail butterfly flitting around it. I had to know what kind of flower it was….and still to this day is only one of about 20 flowers that I know the name to. :o)
Hehe… that’s cool. You know what though if I had seen a b’fly on it I would have run a mile and not looked back :-P Can’t even type the word, LOL.
Anyway I added a link to you in the description now. Thanks! :-D
