Gardening: Black velvet petunias

Have you ever seen a black petunia? Not dark, dark purple but really black. I found some at my fav garden center. They're amazing!

    paired mine with "lemonade" petunias...a soft yellow with a very soft outline on the perimeter of pink. Lovely little plants!

An africa themed office from an old guest bedroom

No solid coating with the stain, this is all hand painted one streak at a time. It took 4 days start to finish. The whole project less than 160 hours

Old weathered door turned coffee table

Hey Hometalkers! I wanted to share this coffee table that my handy husband created for me using some furniture grade wood, spindle legs, an old wooden door and some copper piping. My ...»
neighbor had this weathered old exterior door out on the curb for trash pickup. I stopped and asked if we could have it, and he hand delivered it to my basement! My husband cut it in half, framed it out and added legs, then added the copper pipe as an accent underneath. I absolutely love the way this table turned out. It's sturdy and is perfect for my son to race his cars around the "tracks". Thanks for letting me share! :) http://unskinnyboppy.blogspot.com/2011/08...

My daughters kitchen in Jersey City....

The kids have been renovating for almost 2 years and are about 90% finished, The structure is a 4 story townhouse, and the brick walls you see at the entrance to the bar area and the ...»
main entrance to the kitchen are original and built in 1865. On my next trip, I'll take some shots of the rest of the house,including the windows which had to be custom built to conform to the "strict" guidelines of the Jersey City Historical Society.

The back splash is mirrored glass tile and is $$$$$$$....nothing but the best for my kid...lol

  • What plants did these three yellow leaves come from?

Test your "leaf lingo" and win a $250 Home Depot gift card!

I love the golden leaves of fall -- so much so that I took a photo of three of them from my landscape. Can you name all three?

Post your guess in the Comment box below and we'll announce the winner here Monday.

(In case we have multiple correct entries, Hometalk will conduct a random drawing from among them to determine the winner.) Have fun!
