Star Studded Petunia Varieties for the Garden
When looking for a new twist on a favorite annual flower consider the Sky family of petunias.
These petunias have unique patterns of white speckles on flowers, resembling stars. The original Night Sky® petunia has large flowers, is heat tolerant and forms a somewhat trailing mound 10 to 16” high. It is now part of the Headliner™ group of Sky petunias.
High night temperatures and high humidity can affect the amount and pattern of the white speckles. Flowers will display more starry effects with cooler nights or a break in high daytime temperatures.
A bit more information: Headliner Sky petunias flower best with six hours or more of direct sunlight. Grow these in a well-drained garden soil or container and hanging baskets filled with a quality potting mix.
