Description

Novel Petunia bedding blooms you'll adore in the summer garden. See your favourite garden colourway, now in Petunia form, with scattered trumpet-shaped flowers in warming shades.

Apricot orange flowers are streaked and veined in vivid red, contrasting to perfection against compact beds of rich green ovate leaves. A great containerised plant, bringing a feel of warmth to patio pots or borders, while they are also semi-trailing to draw the eye in a hanging basket.

Flowers emerge in their masses for many months of summer, stretching reliably from May to the chills of October. What’s more, this variety is adored by pollinators, such as butterflies, and other beneficial insects.

Plus, the beauty of 'Apricot Shades Petite' does not have to remain in the garden, as the blooms are great for cutting and including in fresh flower vase displays.

Supplied as a set of six plug plants, ready to grow on and plant out.

Top Tips
  • Deadhead when flowers fade to encourage more flowers.
  • Care Information
    • Unpack plugs immediately, and stand them in water for an hour. If you can’t do this, they can sit in Mini Greenhouses for a week if upright and not too wet.
    • Plugs may be slightly dry or yellow after being in a dark box in the post but they’ll quickly recover. Put them somewhere warm, light and airy such as a windowsill or greenhouse.
    • When potting on, handle plugs carefully. Pot on using our 9cm pots in Shuttle Trays, using good multi-purpose compost.
    • Give your plants a good water initially, then only when the top compost starts to dry. They don’t like to be left in standing water.
    • Plant approximately 20cm apart to allow them room to grow.
    • Feed using a high-potash feed such as Blooming Fast Superior Soluble Fertiliser for Flowers & Fruits, to encourage flowering.
    Delivery Information

    Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

    Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

    We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

    Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

    Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

    Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
