Petunia Shake F1 Raspberry Seeds

The Shake Raspberry dwarf petunia is a compact and early variety with bicolor flowers all different, integrating varying amounts of raspberry pink and cream yellow. They are of an intermediate size between those of Petunia grandiflora and P. multiflora, around 5 to 6 cm. Ideal for borders and containers, this floriferous annual plant is to be sown in warmth, from the end of winter.

From the solanaceae family, the genus Petunia includes 35 species of herbaceous plants, perennial or annual, originating from tropical regions of South America, especially Brazil. Hybridizers have had a field day in terms of varietal innovation. There are numerous varieties of petunias and other surfinias, with single or double flowers, more or less large and variegated. The foliage of petunias is furry and slightly sticky to the touch. Shake Raspberry forms a clump of 20 to 25 cm in all directions.

From June until the first frosts, this dwarf petunia is covered with single flowers, each a little surprise in terms of their shades. In your containers, pair it with Lobelias or Dichondra Silver Falls with silvery foliage and trailing habit. Petunias are perfect for enhancing borders composed of plants with grey foliage, like cerastiums or wormwoods, or for covering the base of roses.
