Notes

'Blanket Purple' petunia (Petunia 'Blanket Purple') is an annual for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and pollinator gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It shrugs off cool spells and light frost, though a hard freeze will damage it. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil. Fragrant flowers bloom from early to late summer and attract butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything.

Pairs well with Blood flower, Sedge, Bellflower, and Mexican bush sage.
