Enjoy the Sunny Yellow blooms of Supertunia Limoncello all summer and into the Fall. Supertunia Limoncello is a great choice for hanging baskets, planters, or window boxes. Enjoy watching the butterflies as they visit your yellow petunias. Supertunias are self-cleaning and require no deadheading to stay looking their best.

Supertunias love heat and grow best in areas that get at least 4 to 6 hours of full sun per day. These easy-care flowers benefit from a controlled-release fertilizer at planting time and once per month thereafter when grown in containers. Most petunias grown in the ground need no more fertilizing other than an application of starter fertilizer at planting.

Supertunias will spread in a container, spilling over and softening the edges of pots and planters. If your petunia begins to hang down too far or begins to look tired, you can trim it back to rejuvenate. Avoid trimming more than one-third of the plant at any time.

How Much Sun Does My Purple Gem Petunia Need?

How Much Sun Does My Purple Gem Petunia Need?

Purple Gem petunias love the sun! We suggest placing or planting your plant in a place that receives at least 6 to 8 hours of full sunlight each day. Although this annual can survive in partial sun and partial shade areas it will bloom best when only in those conditions for a few hours. Remember the more shade your flower gets, the less your flower will bloom.
