Notes
'Fire Chief' petunia (Petunia 'Fire Chief') is an annual for borders, containers, and cottage 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. Deer tend to browse other plants first. It blooms from early to late summer and draws butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees.
Pairs well with Blood flower, Impatiens, and American Dawn dahlia.
