Sowing Instructions

 

Sow seeds indoors from February to April, planting them lightly on the surface of moist, well-drained compost as petunias require light to germinate. Keep the trays in a warm, sunny location at 18-22°C for best results. Once seedlings have developed, transplant them into containers or flower beds after the last frost, spacing them 20-30 cm apart.

 

Alternatively, sow seeds directly outdoors after the risk of frost has passed, ensuring they are in a sunny, sheltered spot.

 

Petunia Nana Compacta is a perfect choice for gardeners seeking a compact, colourful, and easy-to-grow plant that thrives in containers and beds, bringing long-lasting beauty to the garden.
