Notes
'Martha Washington' petunia (Petunia 'Martha Washington') 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. It sits low on the menu for deer. The fragrant flowers bloom from early to late summer and attract butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees.
Pairs well with Impatiens, Blood flower, and Claire Austin rose.
