Petunia

Botanical feminine moniker

Petunia is a flowering plant with trumpet-shaped blooms in vivid colors—purple, pink, red, white, and yellow.

Native to South America, petunias are popular in gardens and hanging baskets for their prolific blooming and low maintenance: The porch was lined with petunias.

Petunia occasionally appears as a given name or term of endearment.
