The original spreading petunia
With its easy spreading colour™ and ability to stand tough in conditions that can wither other petunias, this “nothing-else-like-it” plant led the way to creating the most recognized plant brand in the world. Today, the six-color Wave series is the perfect choice to carry sales through your main season.

  • Virtually care-free, the plants bloom like crazy all season, with masses of flowers along the entire length of each branch with no trimming back.
  • Wave petunias stand up well to both heat and cooler conditions, and perform better than most petunias when botrytis is present. 
  • Recommended in Wave branded packaging: 6-in./15-cm pots, premium gallons, hanging baskets.

Flowers may show appealing white “splashes” when plants are grown in high light or growth regulators are applied. Grows taller than the other Wave colours.
