Celebrating Petunias

Kia Ora Koutou

Let’s celebrate the Classic Petunia flowers which is being retired this year from Heartfelt Creations. I am a little sad to see this flower go as this was the collection I used when I applied for the Heartfelt Creations Design Team. It is such a wonderful versatile flower and is on a clearance sale while stocks last.
