Notes

'Merlin Blue Morn F1' petunia (Petunia 'Merlin Blue Morn F1') is an annual for borders, containers, and cottage gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It grows well in cool weather and can ride out a light frost. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil. It blooms from early to late summer, draws butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees, and has fragrant flowers. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything.

Pairs well with Sweet potato vine, Black-eyed Susan vine, and Celosia.
