Description

First ever star-shaped flowers from seed

Days to Maturity: 70 to 80

Fleuroselect Novelty award 2012

Sow 'Sparklers', award-winning petunias, in early spring, and in summer through fall, the free-flowering plants bloom continuously in star-shaped single flowers—the first ever available from seed—in a wide range of colors, including solids and bicolors.

A half-hardy annual, this highly popular herbaceous plant has an upright, mounded habit of unusual pointed (rather than rounded) foliage. Quite versatile, it prefers full sun to light shade and average, medium moisture soils but tolerates many types of soil, including poor soil, if drainage is good. Best grown in containers or hanging baskets.

Sow seed indoors 10 to 12 weeks before planting outside, acclimatize seedlings outside over 7 to 10 days after the last spring frost, and transplant when day temperatures are in the 62 to 70 degrees Fahrenheit range and night temperatures are in the 55 to 65 degrees Fahrenheit range.

If you plan to start your seeds indoors, be sure to check out our Bio Dome Seed Starter Kit. With the Bio Dome, you can control the temperature, light, and soil mix to ensure your seeds become strong for transplant.
