Our Top Petunia Blooms for 2022
Petunias are a basket & container classic, adding oodles of colour and character to a summer garden display. Our range of bright and sunny Petunias provide top notch blooms to any area of the garden, regardless of whether they're grown in a container, hanging basket, or simply in the flower bed.
Not to be confused with the ever popular Pansy or Calibrachoa; Petunias are a contemporary alternative that will keep your displays looking bright and fresh for several weeks, if not months.
For Baskets
Trailing Petunias are great for hanging baskets, as their foliage overflows elegantly over the edge. You could use these plants as a solo focal point, or pair them with other summer bedding blooms to create a gorgeous cohesive design.
Our Favourites:
Petunia Double Tumbelina Mixed
Petunia Pegasus Raspberry Vein
For Containers
Most Petunias don't trail. Although a select few do, you're more likely to come across a trailing Surfinia, which is considered a genus of Petunia. That being said, most Petunias are perfect for containers as they stand upright and proud for months on end!
Our Favourites:
Petunia Duo Mixed
Petunia Speckled Mixed
Petunia Crazytunia Cosmic Moonstruck
For Ground Cover
Ground cover and container blooms are one in the same. The difference? Petunias can be used as ground cover plants, filling in frustrating gaps in the border or to help control the production of pesky weeds.
Our Favourites:
Petunia Crazytunia Cherries Jubilee
Petunia Beautical Sunray Pink
Petunia Select Mixed
