Days to Maturity: 70 to 80
Fleuroselect Novelty award 2012
Sow 'Sparklers', award-winning petunias, in early spring, and in summer through fall, the free-flowering plants bloom continuously in star-shaped single flowers—the first ever available from seed—in a wide range of colors, including solids and bicolors.
A half-hardy annual, this highly popular herbaceous plant has an upright, mounded habit of unusual pointed (rather than rounded) foliage. Quite versatile, it prefers full sun to light shade and average, medium moisture soils but tolerates many types of soil, including poor soil, if drainage is good. Best grown in containers or hanging baskets.
Sow seed indoors 10 to 12 weeks before planting outside, acclimatize seedlings outside over 7 to 10 days after the last spring frost, and transplant when day temperatures are in the 62 to 70 degrees Fahrenheit range and night temperatures are in the 55 to 65 degrees Fahrenheit range.
If you plan to start your seeds indoors, be sure to check out our Bio Dome Seed Starter Kit. With the Bio Dome, you can control the temperature, light, and soil mix to ensure your seeds become strong for transplant.

*SUPER* cute, but tiny blossoms 1 people found this helpfulThese flowers are so cute, they looked great in pots on my deck. But the blooms are tiny. If you're expecting standard size blooms, you'll be disappointed. If you're okay with smaller blooms, you'll love them.
Response from store
Thanks for sharing your experience! These blooms may be small, but they clearly make an impression. Your feedback on the size is very helpful for other gardeners! -
Disappointed 0 people found this helpfulWas so excited about these, but out of 10 seeds, only 2 terminated and that was barely. Predicting only 1 plant may end up maturing. I have been starting seeds for years and never had such poor results.

Didn't look like the photo 0 people found this helpfulI bought these for the 2022 season because I thought they looked interesting. Unfortunately I only had about a 30% success rate for germination, and the plants that did germinate didn't look much like the photo. The colors weren't as vibrant and not very star shaped. They also got leggy. I've had good success with other Park Seed petunias, but these were a miss for me.
