Petunia Colour


It has been some time since I've planted Petunias in the garden, but this year I had the opportunity to buy trays of them at a very cheap price. You have to love the staff sales at the nursery!! So mass planting of Petunias this years is giving quite a stunning effect, with splashes of colour every where. I was surprised at the variety that is now available in colour it almost seems endless. Single and double blooms, ruffled or smooth petals, striped, veined or solid colours.



So much to choose from
Petunias it would seem are one of the most popular annual bedding flowers and are excellent in hanging baskets, either alone or as a trailing plant in a mixed planting. They do better planted in large groupings, to make a splash of colour in your garden. But in containers petunias can be placed in strategic parts of the garden, to add color where you need it.
