Petunia Wave has taken the gardening world by storm since its introduction a few years ago. Its spreading habit is just stunning, covering ground at the rate of several inches every single day, and trailing lots of big, colorful blooms as it goes. Wave® Rose Hybrid Petunia is a softly-colored deep pink bloom that combines beautifully in the basket, and you'll want to fill your garden with these nonstop summer blooms.
The vibrant, 2-to 2½-inch blooms simply cover this 5- to 7-inch-tall plantand that's saying a lot, because the densely-branched plant spreads 3 to 4 feet or more before you can turn around. Wave® Rose Hybrid Petunia is a popular color in the series because it is vibrant enough to stand on its own, yet also mixes well with purple, white, and other shades of the summer flowering garden.
Wave® Rose Hybrid Petunia is easy to grow from our convenient pelleted seed, which should be started indoors 5 to 6 weeks before transplant to the early-spring garden. Set out plants when all danger of frost is past. It will begin blooming 9 to 11 weeks after sowing. Wave® Rose Hybrid Petunia is magnificent in hanging baskets, window boxes, and large containers, as well as an unrivalled groundcover for bright sun. Stupendous.
