Description

The Petunia 'Chiffon Morn' is a variety of Petunia that is as charming as it is resilient. It is covered in a profusion of slightly undulate flowers, ranging from a beautiful pastel pink to a pale green centre, from June to the first frost: an infinite delicacy. Its compact habit is perfect for borders, flowerbeds, and for growing in pots and hanging baskets.

This plant is highly appreciated for its ornamental value, thanks to its generosity and the length of its flowering period.

The Petunia Chiffon Morn has a compact habit, reaching a height of 30 cm (12in) and a width of 35 cm (14in). You can plant it in the garden, as a border or within a flowerbed, or in a pot, flowerpot, or hanging basket where it will thrive alone or accompanied by Creeping Jenny, Sweet Alyssum, or even with Variegated Creeping Soft Grass for a modern and contrasting effect.

Originally from South America and belonging to the Solanaceae family (like the Ornamental Tobacco, but also... the potato!), the Petunia, or Petunia x hybrida, is an annual herbaceous plant. It bears charming bell-shaped flowers on stems that elongate over time, with the size and colour varying depending on the variety. Its leaves are slightly pubescent, with smooth edges and a dark green. It flowers from as early as June and lasts until the first frost.

The Petunia thrives in sunlight and is sheltered from the wind. It should be planted in a rich, light, and well-drained soil or substrate. It is easy to grow but requires regular watering.

To encourage and support its long flowering period, it is advisable to regularly remove faded flowers and provide a potassium-rich fertiliser, especially in pots and flowerpots, to promote the appearance of new flowers.

 

Attention: seeds are reserved for highly experienced gardeners accustomed to sowing very fine seeds. These seeds are as fine as dust, barely visible to the naked eye.

Planting and care

Sow petunias from February to April on a good sowing compost surface and press gently. Cover the seeds lightly with a thin layer of vermiculite or sieved compost. Place the bowl in a propagator (or enclose it in a polythene bag) or above a radiator at a temperature of 21 to 25°C. Keep the soil moist but not soggy. Light facilitates germination, which generally takes 10 to 21 days.

Once the young petunia plants are large enough to handle, transplant them. Gradually acclimatise the plants to cooler conditions until they are strong enough to be moved outdoors once all risk of frost has passed. Transplant them into well-drained soil at a distance of 30 cm or grow them in pots or window boxes.
