Most bedding petunias can be classified as one of two kinds: Multifloras, which have a large number of smaller flowers that tend to be more weather-resistant, and Grandifloras, which have large, showy blooms but are vulnerable to wind and rain unless they’re grown in sheltered containers.
Petunia ‘Fanfare Appleblossom’ is a trailing Grandiflora petunia with a compact habit. It flowers early and produces masses of large bright pink blooms over a long period. It’s perfect for growing in containers or hanging baskets.
For best results grow Petunia ‘Fanfare Appleblossom’ in moist but well-drained soil in full sun. Water regularly and feed weekly with a high-potash fertiliser. Deadhead spent blooms to prolong flowering.
