The Story
Plant Bio
Petunia x hybrida, or garden petunia, is a widely cultivated tender perennial, typically grown as an annual. It is prized for its profuse, long-lasting blooms in nearly every color, its mounding or trailing habit, and its adaptability to containers and garden beds. A vigorous, mounding-to-trailing cultivar that produces masses of vibrant, bubblegum-pink flowers. It is exceptionally heat tolerant, self-cleaning (no deadheading needed), and blooms continuously from spring until the first hard frost. Excellent as a 'spiller' and 'filler' in containers and as a groundcover.
