Product description
This six pack of Petunia F1 Frenzy Velvet bedding plants will create a show-stopping bedding display with these long-flowering and easy to grow petunias. An excellent variety bred with emphasis on seedling vigour and uniformity, the plants are compact, bushy and have a good free flowering habit. Their deep-burgundy coloured, velvety blooms create a carpet of colour that will stand up to heat and easily shrug off summer showers. Surrounded by contrasting bright green foliage, they can be planted for ground cover in borders and rockeries or they will stand out beautifully in hanging baskets, pots and window boxes.
Plant in fertile, well-drained soil and in full sun or part-shade. Feed and water petunia plants regularly, particularly during hot, dry periods. Petunias bloom longer and stronger when old blossoms and seed capsules are snipped off every week or so.
Please Note: Images are for illustrative purposes only and designed to be a representation of the item(s) being sold. Depending on seasonality, deciduous plants may be supplied in their dormant state and without leaves. Plants may also be pruned back, lower than stated heights, to encourage new growth.

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.

Top Tip
Deadhead faded blooms and pinch back straggly stems to promote fresh growth and longer flowering. Feed every two weeks with a high-potash fertiliser to keep the display full, bright, and blooming all season long.
How to Water
Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, especially during hot or windy conditions. Petunias in containers may need daily watering in summer. Avoid overwatering or letting the soil completely dry out, and ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.
How to Plant
Plant Petunia bedding plants in fertile, well-drained soil in a sunny, sheltered location. These colourful, mound-forming plants are ideal for borders, containers, and mass displays. Space plants 20–30cm apart to give them room to spread and create a carpet of vibrant blooms.
