I have attached pictures of my flowers on my deck this year. I in many previous years (too many) planted a spike, two red geraniums, with hanging purple and white flowers. This year for a change I planted petunias and potato vine. Now the key is too find out how long it lasts. My flowers before went into summer and until the early frost. They looked great in the fall, does any know how to keep the petunias looking great. They seemed to have hit a peak now and I would like to know if this will continue. It has been overcast here but I still water everyday. Too much too little. I feed them with a spray feeder every two weeks. I want them to last like the geraniums and if they continue like this have changed my colour scheme.

Gorgeous pictures! Your flowers look really great!
I never managed to get the stunning display that you have with petunias and potato vine, but I have had both and they stood up well in the heat of summer. I had a setback with a hanging basket because I was not watering enough on the hottest days, but other than that I did ok. I don't remember exactly when the Wave petunias I had stopped, but I was pleased with the colour they provided for a really long time through summer.
