Shock Wave Petunia Seeds

No, you don't. This variety is self-cleaning, meaning the spent blooms drop off naturally, so you can skip the tedious task of pinching off old flowers.

Since these petunias have a spreading habit and reach a width of 30 inches, one or two plants are usually sufficient for a standard-sized hanging basket to create a full, lush look without overcrowding.

Yes, they are specifically bred for improved weather resistance. They handle heat, humidity, and rain much better than traditional spreading petunias, making them a reliable choice for summer gardens.

Pelleted seeds are coated in a clay-like material to make them larger and easier to handle during sowing. You plant them just like regular seeds, but be sure to keep the soil consistently moist so the coating can break down properly for germination.

For the best results, these petunias require full sun. While they might survive in partial shade, you will get fewer blooms and a less vigorous, leggy plant compared to one grown in direct sunlight.

These are annuals, meaning they complete their entire life cycle—from germination to flowering and seed production—in a single growing season. You will need to replant them each spring.
