Petunia Hybrida Mixed Seeds

Petunia Hybrida Mix Seeds -  over 20 seeds per package.

What a dazzling arrangement of colorful blooms with colors of white, pink, salmon-scarlet, dark blue, and rose (colors may vary). They smell so pretty! I plant them every year near my patio so when I walk outside I enjoy the wonderful aroma and the hummingbirds seem to enjoy them as much as I do.

Petunia Hybrida plants are the most popular and widely used summer flowering annuals, and they are easily started from seeds. This variety is not as compact, so it can grow up to 16 inches tall, but it holds up better to rain and water than larger flowering types.

This mix is an excellent choice for beds, borders, planters, window boxes and hanging baskets, and it will bloom from late spring until frost season begins in the fall.

Sow Petunia flower seeds indoors 10 - 12 weeks before planting out. The flower seeds are extremely tiny, so press them gently onto the soil surface without covering, and keep the soil wet for the best germination.

Five or six weeks after sowing the seeds, transplant the seedlings into 3 inch pots, and grow on in cooler temperatures with plenty of light. Harden young plants for 10 - 14 days before planting outdoors after last frost date.

Plant in full sun and well-drained soil. When planting outdoors, pinch the young seedlings back to encourage branching. Petunia Hybrida care includes regular fertilization and deadheading the spent blooms. With care, these flowers will perform all season long.
