Cultivation method:
Sow seeds indoors about 9-12 weeks before the last frost. Place them in moist, light potting soil without covering them, as they need light to germinate. Maintain a constant temperature of 22-24°C to encourage rapid germination in 7-12 days. When the seedlings are large enough, transplant them into individual pots to encourage their development. Gradually acclimate them outdoors before transplanting them into well-drained soil in full sun. Water regularly, but not excessively, to avoid waterlogging the soil.
With its small, bright flowers and trailing habit, Petunia Shock Wave® Deep Purple F1 is an excellent choice for adding color and texture to your outdoor spaces.
