Cultivation: The 'Tidal Wave' series of Petunias has a unique growth habit. The closer together that the plants are spaced... the taller they get, any where from 16" to 22" in height. If they are grown in a restricted space and given a trellis to climb on... they can reach 36" in height. This unique growth habit also makes them an excellent ground cover. The Tidal Wave series is disease resistant and recover quickly from rains.

Plant Petunia Tidal Wave Cherry in full sun in any well worked soil in either containers or beds. Space plants 12" to 36" apart depending on how quickly you want the area to fill in. Feed monthly with a liquid fertilizer.

Available colors: Tidal Wave Cherry, Tidal Wave Hot Pink, Tidal Wave Purple, and Tidal Wave Silver.

Potential pests ~ diseases:
Aphids or whiteflies.
