Petunias come in a dazzling range of colors and patterns—solids, stripes, veining, and even ruffles—making them one of the most versatile bedding plants. Their trailing or mounding habits work beautifully in containers, window boxes, and borders. With regular watering and occasional deadheading, they provide a nonstop show of color all season long. Petunias prefer full sun and well-drained soil, and newer varieties are bred for improved weather resistance and less maintenance. They're also a magnet for hummingbirds and butterflies, making them a vibrant, pollinator-friendly choice.
