Petunia (Petunia Multiflora F2 Veined Mix) - These annuals come in a wide variety of colors and sizes, and they can easily be grown from Petunia seeds. This flower mix has several pastel shade and the flowers feature delicate veins that are darker in color than the bloom. The veined flower has a soft, charming appeal and will be stunning whether planted in the flower border or in containers and baskets. Grow the plants in ample sun and in rich soil with good drainage. Because the plants are heavy feeders, Petunia flower care includes regular applications of a balanced liquid fertilizer.
How to Grow Petunias from Seed: Sow Petunia seeds indoors 10 - 12 weeks before planting out. The flower seeds are extremely tiny, so press them gently onto the soil surface without covering, and keep the soil wet for the best germination. Five or six weeks after sowing the seeds, transplant the seedlings into 3 inch pots, and grow on in cooler temperatures with plenty of light. Harden young plants for 10 - 14 days before planting outdoors after last frost date, and pinch the young Petunia seedlings back to encourage branching at the time of planting out. The plants benefit from deadheading and a good shearing mid-season to help rejuvenate them.
