Petunia 'Caliburst Petchoa Yellow'

During the flowering period, remove dead flowers as often as possible to avoid seedpods from developing, as these can stop further flowering.

Plant:

• Water 1-2 hours prior to planting. Gently remove the plants from the tray by pushing up from the bottom using a pencil or something similar.
• Transfer the plants into small pots or seed trays filled with good multi-purpose compost.
• Water the plants well once, and then do not water again until the compost is nearly dry, or the plants are wilting.
• Once the risk of frost has passed, then plant outside.
• Harden off the plants prior to planting out, by placing the plants outside during the day and bringing in at night for two weeks.
• Once planted, water the plants well.

How to care:

• Weekly watering is needed to keep the soil moist throughout the growing season.
• Be sure to check the ground every three to four days in dry weather.
• Either cut back to ground level in autumn or leave the cutting until February so the dead stems can form perfect cover for winter wildlife.
• If your soil is light or slightly infertile, then apply a high potassium liquid fertiliser once or twice a week to help maintain flowering.
• Move any container-grown flowers indoors when temperatures are forecast that will drop below freezing.
• When cutting back the dead flowers, be sure to do this right to the ground to make plenty of room for the new season’s growth.
  

Our experienced team at the nursery will always carefully package and send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive once you receive and plant them.

We also avoid dispatching orders over Bank Holiday weekends.
