| Cultivation:
Petunia Dreams™ 'Burgundy' is a Grandiflora Petunia. All
Petunias are broken down into classes or groups. Grandiflora's
have the largest flowers... usually up to 4" across. They can
be either single or double flowered. Their flowers are easily
damaged by rain... lately that hasn't been a problem around
here.
The 'Dreams™ Series" is more weather tolerant than
others. Some say that Grandiflora's are best planted in sheltered
beds, in mixed containers or hanging baskets that can be moved or
sheltered from rain.
Nearly all Petunia's are easy to grow and quite vigorous growers.
Plant Petunia Dreams Burgund in full sun in any well worked soil in either containers
or beds. Space plants 6" to 12" apart depending on how
quickly you want the area to fill in. Plants can be sheared after
the initial flowering to maintain bushiness and promote new flower
growth... or they can be left un-sheared to grow naturally. Feed
monthly with a liquid fertilizer.
Available colors: Appleblossom,
Burgundy, Midnight, Neon Rose, Pink, Red, Rose, Salmon, White and
Dreams™ mix.
Potential pests ~ diseases: Aphids or whiteflies.
