Petunias are one of the most popular and well-known flowers that grace flower beds and borders, window boxes, hanging baskets, and planters of all shapes and sizes. Their brilliant color and long bloom season make them very rewarding to grow. They prefer full sun to partial shade, rich well-drained soil, and an occasional trimming of spent blooms will encourage a continuous, full display of color. In frost-free zones, Petunias are perfect for fall and winter color, but in most zones, Petunias are grown for spring, summer and fall color. This variety, Petunia Multiflora F2 Star Mix, offers a mix of brilliant colored blooms all with a contrasting white star in the center. They are so pretty! Start the seed indoors 4 – 6 weeks before the last expected frost. Press the seed into the soil but do not cover it. Keep the seed moist. With a temperature of 70F, germination normally occurs within 14 days. Transplant the Petunias outdoors after danger of frost has passed and space them 12 inches apart.
