Description

The Petunia miniflora 'Minibella Picotee' Mixed is a variety of compact miniature Petunia. Very floriferous and particularly resistant, it is covered in many small bicoloured flowers (5 cm (2in)) in a harmonious mix of pink and violet from June to the first frost. Magnificent in pots, containers, the garden, and borders.

It is a highly appreciated plant of great ornamental value, which owes its success to its generosity and flowering duration.

The Petunia miniflora 'Minibella Picotee' Mixed has a compact habit, reaching a height of 15 cm (6in). You can plant it in the garden, at the edge of a bed or in a pot or container where it will look wonderful on its own or accompanied by Helichrysum, Verveine Vepita, Diascia or even with Holcus mollis for a modern and contrasting effect.

Originating from South America and belonging to the Solanaceae family (like Ornamental Tobacco but also... the potato!), Petunia, or Petunia x hybrida, is an annual herbaceous plant. It bears charming bell-shaped flowers on stems that elongate over time, with the size and colour varying depending on the variety. Its leaves are slightly pubescent, with smooth edges and dark green. It blooms from June onwards and lasts until the first frost.

Petunia thrives in the sun and sheltered from the wind. You can plant it in a rich, light and well-drained soil or substrate. It is easy to grow but requires regular watering.

To encourage and support its long flowering period, it is advisable to regularly remove faded flowers and provide a potassium-rich fertiliser, especially in pots and containers, to promote the appearance of new flowers.

Attention: seeds are reserved for experienced gardeners accustomed to sowing very fine seeds. These seeds are as fine as dust, barely visible to the naked eye.

Planting and care

Sow petunias from February to April on a good sowing compost surface and press gently. Cover the seeds lightly with a thin layer of vermiculite or sieved compost. Place the bowl in a propagator (or enclose it in a polythene bag) or above a radiator at a temperature of 21 to 25°C. Keep the soil moist but not soggy. Light facilitates germination, which generally takes 10 to 21 days.

Once the young Petunia plants are large enough to handle, transplant them. Gradually acclimatise the plants to cooler conditions until they are strong enough to be moved outdoors once all risk of frost has passed. Transplant them into well-drained soil at a distance of 30 cm or grow them in pots or window boxes.
