Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.

Instructions
Top Tip
Regularly deadheading spent blooms will keep the plants looking fresh and encourage them to produce new flowers right through the season. For the best results, feed Petunias little and often with a weekly liquid fertiliser, which helps maintain vibrant colour and supports a compact, tidy shape as they grow.
How to Water
Water Garden Petunias regularly to keep the compost lightly moist, allowing the top layer to dry slightly between each watering. During warm spells or when plants are in containers, check them more often, as they can dry out quickly once they’re in full summer growth.
How to Plant
Install the young plant near the rim of the container using a slightly acidic multipurpose potting compost. Angle the growing tip slightly downward to encourage the vines to immediately begin their cascade. Giving your Petunia Amethyst an edge position allows it to rapidly form a massive curtain of foliage and flowers.
