All-America Selections (AAS) Winner 1995

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. Wave® Purple Classic Hybrid Petunia is the Wave that started it all, and it's still undoubtedly the finest for big blooms and rapid coverage.

The vibrant, 2- to 2½-inch rosy-purple blooms simply cover this 5- to 7-inch-tall plant—and that's saying a lot, because the densely-branched plant spreads 3 to 4 feet or more before you can turn around. Wave® Purple Classic Hybrid Petunia won an AAS award, and it just keeps piling up the praise from gardeners everywhere.

Wave® Purple Classic Hybrid Petunia is 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. Purple Wave will begin blooming 9 to 11 weeks after sowing. It is magnificent in hanging baskets, window boxes, and large containers, as well as an unrivalled groundcover for bright sun. Stupendous.

If you like Wave® Purple Classic Hybrid Petunia—as just about everyone in America does—you've got to Rose, too. Catch all the Waves —you just can't wipe out. Cowabunga.

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.
