Are you sure this is a petunia? The flower structure looks different to me. This is an extreme version, deep purple to black petals with a gold fringe. Nice capture of the bloom, Tony. I am still a little stunned by the appearance of this bloom.

You are correct. You can trust that no one was more surprised than me. First time I have seen one such as this.

Thanks again,

Tony
