Details
Petunia hybrid 'Amore Purple' is a vigorous performer that displays unique blooms with dark purple-blue heart shapes outlined in white. Attracts butterflies and hummingbirds. Mounded, trailing habit. Petunias are very heat tolerant and are ideal for beds, baskets, window boxes, and mixed containers. Fertilize often for best summer performance.
Growing Tips
If you have problems with budworms (you will first see holes in the blooms and buds, and about a week later, all the blooms are gone) we recommend Captain Jack's Deadbug Brew. It's safe enough to be used for organic growing, and we have seen excellent results. Treat as soon as you see any holes in the flowers or buds. Usually a treatment lasts about 6 weeks or more, depending on the year. We carry this fantastic product at our Kaw Valley Garden Centers.
