Petunia x hybrida Patio Cherry Vein
Garden Petunia, Common Petunia
A bit disappointed because the flowers are very small, nothing like the black or white petunias. This variety is closer to calibrachoas, and that's not what I was expecting.

Description
Petunia Patio Cherry Vein is a trailing variety, notable for its abundant spreading vegetation and pale pink flowers marked with cherry pink, from June to October.
This floriferous Petunia is a recommended selection for growing on the balcony and in hanging baskets, with its loose and trailing growth and a cascade of large single flowers from June to October. It reaches a height of 30-40cm (12-16in) and a width of 50-60cm (20-24in). The flowers measure 5 to 6 cm (2in) in diameter, with five petals arranged in a circle and a single flower per peduncle.
Petunia Patio Cherry Vein is resistant to drought and heat, thrives in sunny locations and exhibits rapid and vigorous growth.
Supplied as growing plants measuring 4 to 8cm (2 to 3in) in 5 small plugs, 2.5cm (1in) in diameter and 4cm (2in) in height. Our plants are at least eight weeks old and strong enough to be planted outdoors.
Note: Please be aware that our plug plants are products intended for experienced gardeners. Upon receipt, transplant and store them in a sheltered area (veranda, greenhouse, cold frame, etc.) at a temperature above 14°C (57.2°F) for a few weeks before planting them outdoors once all risk of frost has passed.

Planting and care
You can plant your Patio Cherry Vein Petunias in the ground or in a pot. If you want to plant them in the ground, wait until the last heavy frosts have passed (petunias can tolerate a light late frost). In the meantime, you can grow them on in a pot in a warm and bright place to speed up their growth. Petunias bloom from June to October. Plant your Patio Cherry Vein petunias in a sunny or partially shaded spot, sheltered from the wind. They need light and humus-bearing, well-drained soil. Do not water them too much at the beginning of the growing season as they are sensitive to excessive moisture. They tolerate drought well but will need regular watering during hot summer temperatures. Petunias are susceptible to frost (minimum -1°C (30.2°F)). They are floriferous and fast-growing, hungry plants. We recommend feeding them with a liquid fertiliser once or twice a week during the growing season. Remove faded flowers and dry leaves as they appear, to keep them looking good and extend the flowering period.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
