Dreams Appleblossom Petunia, a single grandiflora type variety, is a tender perennial (Zones 10-11), often grown as an annual, offering spring through summer interest. Free flowering, this petunia sets large, showy, pale pink blooms with a yellow eye. The fragrant flowers attract bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds.
An herbaceous plant, Dreams Appleblossom Petunia has an upright, mounded, well-branched habit. It’s perfect in containers, window boxes, and hanging baskets but makes great edging or groundcover in beds and borders. Planted alongside perennials and vegetables, petunias repel asparagus beetles, leafhoppers, tomato worms, a range of aphids, and many other pests.
Easy to grow, Dreams Appleblossom prefers full sun to light shade and average, medium moisture, well-drained soil. It tolerates poor soils and is virtually disease and pest free and deer resistant. Although petunias are low maintenance plants, pinching off the tops of established plants results in bushier plants with a heavier bloom, and deadheading regularly encourages and prolongs flowering. Cutting back plants that have declined in summer heat promotes a later bloom as temperatures cool.
Direct sow petunia seed after the last frost and as soon as the soil is warm in spring, or start seeds indoors 10 to 12 weeks before the last frost and transplant after all threat of frost has passed.
