Petunia 'Pretty Garden' mix

Petunia x hybrida

Reduced price - seeds are at or near "Last sell by date" - sow extra seeds to allow for possible reduced germination.

Popular and colorful summer flower that flowers all summer. Suitable to have in balcony boxes and containers. Robust plant that thrives in sun to partial shade in porous, nutrient-rich soil. Fertilize regularly after planting out and during the season.

Pre-cultivation:  10-12 weeks before expected last frost (March-April).  Petunias are heat-loving plants and need at least 10 weeks of pre-cultivation to grow strong before being planted outside.

Sow sparsely on moistened seed-starting soil. Do not cover with soil - petunias need light and warmth to germinate. Provide light and keep warm (24 C), moist and cover with plastic. Replant to 1 plant/pot with fertilized soil. Place in a light and cool place. Additional lighting produces plumper plants, adjust lighting to 15cm above the plants as they grow. For bushier plants, pinch back 1-2 weeks after transplanting.

Very sensitive to frost, don't plant out too early!
