Petunia 'Dwarf Mix' / Nana Compacta Mix
Approx. 200+ seeds
Petunias are delightful little plants which look great in borders or en masse in summer. This mixture contains a range of colours such as white, purple, red, pink and pink and white striped. This variety is low growing and perfect for pots and hanging baskets. Annual growing to 20-30cm in height. *Note petunia seeds are very small and calculated by weight for accuracy.
Sow Au-Sp in warm areas, Sp-Su in cool areas.
Sow on the surface, use the following method for best results: Use fine seed raising mix in a tray or pot and pre moisten the mixture before adding seeds to ensure they aren’t washed away. Sprinkle seeds on the surface and pat down so they have good contact with the soil but don’t entirely cover them as light helps with the germination. The best germination rate is achieved at temperatures of 20-22 degrees C so sowing indoors is recommended. Maintaining this temperature range can be helped by covering the top of the seed raising tray with cling wrap and poking a few holes in it for ventilation. Do not place the tray/pot in any direct sunlight until they germinate. To avoid washing the seeds away, water regularly with a spray bottle and gently mist the seeds to ensure they never dry out but are never too damp (or they may rot). Once the seeds have germinated the cling wrap can be removed.
