Tell Me More…
A joyful colour combination of white and magenta pink creates a fanfare of trumpet shaped blooms with star-shaped markings to the interior. Petunia ‘Bubbles Butterfly’ also has exceptional weather and mildew resistance built in, along with a self-cleaning habit – so no need for constant deadheading as spent flowers drop naturally. Blooms are borne from June to October – bursting over containers for generous mounds in baskets, containers and raised beds. Plants will even scramble and spread across an herbaceous border, suppressing weeds and filling gaps as they grow. Foliage is rich green and contrasts beautifully with the blooms above. Petunia ‘Bubbles Butterfly’prefers to be planted in a moist, well-drained loam or sand-based soil. Position in either full sun or partial shade where they will grow to a height and spread of 40cm. These are tender (H2) annuals which will die back and should be composted down at the end of the season.
