Petunia (Petunia Grandiflora F1 Single Position White) - How attractive is a display of sparkling white Petunias in the summer garden! Easy-to-grow from flower seeds, this Grandiflora white combines the best of both worlds as it has the superb garden performance of the smaller flowered Multifloras plus the large showy blooms of the Grandifloras. This Petunia recovers quickly from rain, heat, or drought and with its compact branching habit is ideal for bedding, window boxes, hanging baskets, and planters. Mix the white blooms with another vivid color to have a gorgeous contrast of color all summer long!
Sow white Petunia seeds indoors 10 - 12 weeks before planting out. These flower 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 Petunia seeds, transplant the 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. When planting outdoors, pinch the young white Petunia seedlings back to encourage branching.
