Petunia grandiflora Sophistica Lime Bicolour

The Petunia grandiflora 'Sophistica Lime Bicolour' is a variety of petunia with remarkable colouring. From June to the first frosts, it bears a mass of large pink flowers marked with pale yellow patches. Beautiful both on the balcony and in the garden, as a border or ground cover.

It is a highly appreciated plant of great ornamental value, which owes its success to its generosity and the length of its flowering period.

The Petunia grandiflora Sophistica Lime Bicolour is highly versatile. You can plant it in the garden, as a border or within a flower bed, or in a pot, hanging basket or container where it will be wonderful on its own or accompanied by Angelonia, Vervain Vepita, Dichondra, or even with Holcus mollis for a modern and contrasting effect.

Native to South America and belonging to the Solanaceae family (like ornamental tobacco but also... the potato!), 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 dark green. It blooms from June onwards and lasts until the first frosts.

Petunias thrive in sunny and sheltered locations. You should plant them in rich, light, and well-drained soil or substrate. They are easy to grow, but they require a lot of water.
