About this product

Petunia mix is a beautifully flowering annual that blooms from June until the first frosts in mixed colours: pink, purple, red, white. Petunia × atkinsiana grows 20–30 cm tall and forms a dense, freely flowering, rounded plant.

Large trumpet-shaped flowers cover the plant all summer and it needs only sun, regular watering and feeding. Mix means the flower colours vary, so a specific colour cannot be chosen.

Use it in balcony boxes, hanging baskets, bed edges and containers. Plant out after the last frosts (in Estonia usually end of May).

Advice from our agronomist

Planting. Plant out after the last frosts (end of May in Estonia) in a sunny spot. In boxes and baskets use good potting compost; space plants 25–30 cm apart. Containers must have drainage holes.

Care. Pinch off faded flowers (and seed pods) regularly to keep blooms coming. If the stems become bare, cut them back by half and the plant will re-sprout.

Watering and feeding. Water regularly, daily in hot weather, trying not to wet the leaves. Feed weekly with a liquid flowering fertiliser (high in potassium).

Winter care and pruning. Annual: the plant dies with the first autumn frost. If you wish, bring plants indoors before the cold and overwinter them vegetatively, but new plants are usually grown every year.
