Petunia F1 'Perfumed Shades'

Description

Our busy breeders have been at work again! We have crossed an attractive selection of modern petunias with the vigorous and fabulously-fragrant white Petunia axillaris. These new and exclusive plants are very vigorous and unlike modern dwarf varieties, these can scramble through low bushes giving an incredible effect. They will range from mauves, through purples and pinks to pure white, and large-flowered, delicately-marked bi-colours. All should be exceedingly perfumed, especially after the sun sets! You will almost certainly discover new novel flower forms when they bloom! Very few seeds collected.

Sowing Advice

For best results, seeds should be just watered in and NOT deeply covered, at any time in gentle warmth, 15-20 degrees C, and good light. Prick out into small 3 inch or 7 cm. pots and plant in final position or a large container when the plants are established. This is not a highly-bred cultivar, and seeds are always very slow and erratic to germinate, sometimes taking a month or more to appear, so please be patient. Seedlings are also initially very slow to grow.
