Notes

Petunia (Petunia × atkinsiana) 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. Deer rarely make it their first choice. It blooms from early to late summer, and butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees visit the fragrant flowers.

Pairs well with Garden verbena, Sedge, and Stella de Oro daylily.
