Petunia hybrida Bicolor Cabernet - Petunia cascadias Bicolor Cabernet

The Petunia Cascadias Bicolor Cabernet, originating from South America, is remarkable for its stunning red colour with white stars. It forms a veritable cascade of large single flowers from June to October. It is a perennial herbaceous plant, grown as an annual in colder climates. It is hybrid and creeping. Its hybridization dates back to the year 2000.

This Petunia has masses of flowers and is very interesting in hanging baskets with its long very downy stems. It measures between 50 and 70cm (27.6 in) in height. The flowers are 5 to 6 cm (2 - 2.4 in) in diameter. They consist of five petals arranged in a circular pattern with a single flower per stalk.

Drought and heat resistant, they thrive in sunny positions as well as partial shade. The Petunia Cascadias Bicolor Cabernet grows vigorously and rapidly. It has a slight fragrance.

Young plants which measure 4 to 8cm (1.6 - 3.1 in) in small 2.5cm (0.8 in) diameter pots, 4cm (1.6 in) high, are at least eight weeks old and mature enough to be planted in the ground.

Grow with other petunias.
