I've always wanted flowers at my back balcony, but it's so shaded few flowering plants would bloom or thrive there. One day, I took a walk around my neighborhood and discovered purple flowers blooming under a heavy shade. And that's when I knew this is the plant I need. They bring delight to me every day. Today, four flowers bloomed! Apparently it's called a Mexican petunia? #flowers #FlowersOfMastodon #gardening #BalconyGarden

    @liztai@hachyderm.io We have a similar problem. Our backyard is mostly in shade for over 6 months of the year, then in summer it gets sun for a few hours at the hottest part of the day. Very few plants survive both of those conditions.
