Notes

'Polo Salmon' petunia (Petunia 'Polo Salmon') 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 is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything. Butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees visit the fragrant blooms from early to late summer.

Pairs well with Vinca, Mexican bush sage, and American Dawn dahlia.
