Dolcissima is a brand-new series from Italy that has already taken Europe by storm and is certain to become a favorite here, too! Terrific for containers of all kinds as well as the garden, its award-winning habit and colors will transform your summer garden!

Give it a regular feed to keep the color coming, and you'll enjoy this remarkable blend of colors for months! But whatever you do, DO try these thrilling new Italian Petunias this season!
