I love the new geranium I found near Gettysburg, PA---"Crimson Flame". It's Pepto pink with a red throat. Once I saw it, I was absolutely smitten. I also found some beautiful healthy portulaca that's starting to bloom now, petunias in assorted purples, trophy-sized white wax begonias and some beautiful Dark Eyes fuschia. In Bowie, MD, I found this unique new petunia I just had to have (upper right of photo)--Blackberry Cheesecake. And by golly, it looks just like that cheesecake!

Here's a bit more close up, showing the Blackberry Cheesecake petunia better.

At the narrow end of my balcony, we have more Crimson Flame geraniums, purple petunias, and the now-blooming portulaca trailing down.
