Petunias are beautiful annual blooms that come in a range of different shades and colors. Its delicate appearance has become quite a popular choice for gardeners who enjoy giving their backyard a burst of vibrant hues and character.
Adding a touch of allure to your backyard, these fast growing plants that have engrossing long-trumpet shaped faces, come in many varieties. Petunia is a genus of 20 species of flowering plants, and Laura Janney, gardening expert and founder of The Inspired Garden, an online resource and course center for new and experienced gardeners, tells us: 'Petunias are no longer the petunias you may remember from your childhood! With newer varieties like Wave or Supertunia, you get prolific blooms with minimal to no deadheading, better heat and humidity tolerance and they come in many different growing habits making it easy to choose the right petunia for the job whether that’s dotting them along your garden border or using them in hanging baskets'. We love them as flowers for window boxes too.
