Easy Wave® Plum Vein Petunia Seeds

How could the award-winning, super-popular Wave® series of petunias possibly be improved upon? By introducing Plum Vein Easy Wave, with a more mounding, slightly less spreading habit, that sets new blooms from the center as well as the ends of each stem, keeping the planting looking fresh and newly-opened month after month.

Petunia Wave has taken the gardening world by storm since its introduction a few years ago. Its spreading habit is just stunning, covering ground at the rate of several inches every single day, and trailing lots of big, colorful blooms as it goes. Plum Vein Easy Wave doesn't reach quite as far as the older Waves, but it stands up "taller," reaching 6 to 12 inches high and trailing 2½ to 3 feet or more. You will love the endless bloom power and the improved shape of this plant, which is ideal for hanging baskets, window boxes, and flowerpots of all kinds. The flowers are particularly distinctive, their petals boasting a rich lavender backdrop for the darker violet veins.

Easy to grow from our convenient pelleted seed, which should be started indoors 5 to 6 weeks before transplant to the early-spring garden. Set out plants when all danger of frost is past. Plum Vein Easy Wave will begin blooming 10 to 12 weeks after sowing. It is magnificent in hanging baskets, window boxes, and large containers, as well as an unrivalled ground cover for bright sun. Stupendous.

This seed comes as a "pellet". "Pelleted" seeds are small seeds that have been clay-coated to make them larger and more uniform in size and shape, making them easier to handle when planting.
