  • Posted by ILPARW (southeast Pennsylvania - Zone 6b) on May 17, 2023 3:48 PM concerning plant:
    In mid-May of 2023 I went to a conventional greenhouse and bought most of my annual flowers. One plant I bought was this cultivar of petunia that was already of good size so that it immediately filled my pot for it. This selection that has small but many flowers, similar to the old Multiflora Petunias, does not need deadheading, as do those types of petunias with large, but fewer flowers, as the Grandifloras. It has a Proven Winners tag and pot.
