Lucky’s Purple Petunia (Petunia integrifolia) – The farm dog; a border collie named Lucky would often seek the shade of a hot summer day by barrelling through my grandmother’s pink and purple petunia’s which were planted right next to the cool cement steps. Much to my grandmother’s disapproval, Lucky would continually flatten her prized Petunia collection. My mother has continued to plant ‘Lucky’s Petunias’ for many years thereafter. We were ‘Lucky’ enough to have been gifted the seed source in 2016. Eventually a wire fence would force Lucky to find an alternative pathway to her favourite hang-out. Another unique heirloom flower from Baba with pastel and violet-purple coloured flowers.
