History:

(Spider-Verse III#3/3 (fb) - BTS) - At some point, Petunia Parker was shrunk to the size of an insect.

(Spider-Verse III#3/3) - Using the alias of Garden-Spider, Petunia took to living inside her old watering can and spent her days leaping from skyscraper-sized plant to plant, caring for them and protecting the flowers from the Aphid and his sinister insects.

(Spider-Verse III#6 (fb) - BTS) - Garden-Spider was recruited alongside several other Multiversal Spider-totems to assist in locating Earth-18119's Spiderling, patternmaker of the Great Web of Life and Destiny.

(Spider-Verse III#6 (fb)) - Garden-Spider was present on Earth-001 when Earth-19166's Spider-Zero located Spiderling trapped inside a tangle within the Great Web.

(Spider-Verse III#6) - Garden-Spider joined the other assembled Spider-totems in converging on the tangle in the Great Web and attempting to unravel it. When the Great Web responded by opening portals to Earth-51778 and unleashing an army of Machine Bem Monsters, Garden-Spider leaped into battle against the monsters, helping hold them at bay while Spider-Zero and Earth-1610's Spider-Man (Miles Morales) freed Spiderling from the Great Web tangle. Spiderling then began restoring the Great Web, banishing the Machine Bem Monsters and sending Garden-Spider and the other Spider-totems back to their home realities.

Comments: Created by Alyssa Ragni.

Garden-Spider is one of several Spidersona's who appeared in the back-pages of Spider-Verse (2020). "Spidersona" was a hashtag that launched around the release of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018). Amazed at the talent of creativity of people posting their creations online, Marvel reached out to some of these artists to create new Spidersona art especially for the Spider-Verse (2020) series. Every issue showcased several original pieces of Spidersona art by artists from around the globe after which most appeared in the story as well.

Garden-Spider's eye and hair color were impossible to determine, as she was never seen without her mask on.
