| Petunia Wave® has taken the gardening world by storm since its introduction a few years ago. Its spreading habit is just stunning, covering ground at the rate of several inches every single day, and trailing lots of big, colorful blooms as it goes! Purple is the Wave® that started it all, and it's still undoubtedly the finest for big blooms and rapid coverage. The vibrant rosy-purple blooms simply cover this 6-inch-tall plant -- and that's saying a lot, because the densely-branched plant spreads 5 feet or more before you can turn around! Purple Wave® won an AAS award, and it just keeps piling up the praise from gardeners everywhere! Easy to grow from our convenient pelleted seed, which should be started indoors 5 to 6 weeks before transplant to the early-spring garden. Set out plants when all danger of frost is past. Wave® will begin blooming 10 to 12 weeks after sowing. It is magnificent in hanging baskets, windowboxes, and large containers, as well as an unrivalled groundcover for bright sun. Stupendous! If you like Purple Wave® -- as just about everyone in America does! -- you've got to try the newer colors, too. Blue just walked off with top honors in the 2003 U.S. and European trials, nabbing BOTH the AAS and the Fleuroselect Gold Medal. Both Blue and Lavender have a terrific central growth habit that keeps flowers coming from the middle of the plant, so that even older bloomers look fresh and new! Then there's soft Misty Lilac (yes, another AAS winner!) with white-splashed blooms, and the totally award-free but just as high-performing (from what I can see!) Pink! Catch any or all of the Waves -- you just can't wipe out! Cowabunga! Pkt is 10 pelleted seeds. |
