Petunia (Petunia)

Color Name: Jewel Pink Diamond
Petunia Jewel Pink Diamond is known for its vibrant, double pink blooms with delicate white edges. This vigorous annual is prized for its continuous bloom from spring through fall and its upright, mounding habit, making it excellent for hanging baskets, containers, and borders. Pink Diamond is recognized for its superior performance, featuring better branching and more blooms per plant compared to other trailing double petunias. They are also low-maintenance and heat tolerant.
Growing Tips: Petunias love to bask in the sun and enjoy 6 hours or more of daily sunlight. Water your petunias regularly to promote lush blooms. Make sure the soil is well drained because soggy soil and overwatering can cause root rot and yellowed foliage. Soil prepared before planting petunias should have well-composted organic matter worked in. Our petunias are self-cleaning. Deadheading is not necessary!
When planting in containers, hanging baskets and window boxes, we recommend using our potting soil which is specially formulated for our plants. An application of a time release fertilizer at the time of planting will help to ensure the best possible performance. Zehr's Osmocote blend is perfect for the job. We also suggest fertilizing every two weeks during the hot summer months of June, July and August with Maxsea, which you can purchase at Zehr's. Begonias, Impatiens and most plants grown for foliage normally do not need as much fertilizer.
