Tidal Wave® Silver Petunia Seeds

But 3 pelletized seeds did not germinate. So far the ones that did look good & strong.

I love all of these tidal wave petunias. They literally do grow like a hedge sometimes. Prolific, huge, beautiful. They never stop blooming and always look great.

I bought some of these flowers several years ago and the next year could not find anyone who sold them. They are awesome and their scent is breathtaking. My husband was so happy when I told him that I'd found them!!! I was actually cleaning out an old flowerbed and found a broken plant tag from one of the plants I'd planted there previously. I was ecstatic and imagine my joy when I looked on your website and there was this wonderful plant for which I'd looked and looked!!

It grows with a scant 6 hrs of direct sun, it flows in a wave quite extensively & doesn't stop or lose the center blooms right up to frost. Goes with every color. I have grown it several years in a row from seeds & plants.

Silver outperforms red by far. I have grown these in Zone 4 and Zone 8a. They are HUGE. If in a space where they can spread they will be 4-6 feet in diameter and a foot tall. IN fact, one grew so large that it covered and killed one of my new foot tall shrubs because it grew over it and blocked out the sun. I kept moving the petunia off of it but it was too vigorous and grew back over in a few days each time. I gave up. If in a space where they cannot spread as well mine have grown 2 feet tall and 2-3 feet wide. I won't promise it because it depends on weather but in upstate NY these came back once when properly mulched. My GA ones have stayed green most of the winter but of course are not flowering. I find that these are easy to dampen off so expect to only see about half- but believe me you had better have a lot of lawn if all of them make it to planting!! I wish I could attach a photo. These silver waves are unbelievable. They bounce back after storms too.
