Notes
'First Lady' petunia (Petunia 'First Lady') is an annual for borders, containers, and cottage gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. Cool weather suits it, and it can take a light frost. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything. It blooms from early to late summer, and its fragrant flowers draw butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees.
Pairs well with Dense blazing star, Blood flower, and Kelvin Floodlight dahlia.
