Petunia (Petunia Grandiflora F1 Single Position Pink) - No garden is complete without a display of bright pink flowers! The Grandiflora plant has so much to offer all summer and into the fall. Establish them by sowing Petunia seeds, and plant them all throughout your sunny garden areas and in baskets and pots. This variety has large, single, 4 inch brilliant pink blooms. The brilliant color demands a second look!
How to Grow Petunias from Seed: Sow the flower seeds indoors 10 - 12 weeks before planting out. Petunia seeds are extremely tiny, so press them gently onto the soil surface without covering, and keep the soil wet for the best germination. Five or six weeks after sowing the seeds, transplant seedlings into 3 inch pots, and grow on in cooler temperatures with plenty of light. Harden young plants for 10 - 14 days before planting outdoors after last frost date.
Plant Petunias in full sun and well-drained soil. When planting outdoors, pinch the young seedlings back to encourage branching. Petunia flower care includes regular fertilizing throughout the bloom season, and they also benefit from deadheading and a good shearing mid-season to help rejuvenate them. Water the plant at the root level as watering from overhead will spoil the large blooms.
