I grew Petunia Double Cascade Orchid Mist from seed this year specifically to plant in a hanging basket. I also gave plants to my neighbor for her hanging basket when the petunia it came with died. The flowers are large and showy. It also continues to flower well even without deadheading, but I think it was misnamed because the plants do not cascade. For the most part, they are upright in both baskets. I will definitely grow them again because the flowers are gorgeous, but I'll plant them in the ground or in a planter. I think the wave petunias would do better in hanging baskets.
