I baby the plants during the summer heat then plant when the temps come down. I just picked up three 18 pack flats of wave petunias for $2.00 per flat on Saturday. Regular $54.00 per flat. I potted them all up on Sunday. They look a little messy today but in very short time they will look nice. I stuffed as many of them as I could fit into a stack of clay pots and made up a bunch of hanging baskets. I bought two huge hanging baskets for half price. $35.00 for the two.

This pic is the petunias in clay pots taken yesterday. 12', 10", 8" & 6".
