Phantom Petunia Flower Seeds are a type of annual bonsai seed that blooms in the summer. These seeds are easy to cultivate and ideal for outdoor planting in subtropical climates. The seeds do not come with a flowerpot and are perfect for individuals who enjoy growing their plants.
Species and varieties: Petunia x hybrida, commonly known as Petunia. The 'Phantom' variety is a unique and striking type of petunia known for its dark, almost black petals with a bright yellow star pattern.
Hybrid or heirloom: The Phantom Petunia is a hybrid variety. Hybrid petunias are bred for specific traits such as color, size, and resistance to diseases.
Pruning and training: Regular deadheading (removal of spent flowers) is recommended to encourage continuous blooming. Pinching back the stems can promote bushier growth.
Fertilization needs: Phantom Petunias benefit from regular fertilization. Use a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every two weeks during the growing season. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of flowers.
Hardiness zones: Phantom Petunias are suitable for USDA hardiness zones 9-11. They can be grown as annuals in cooler climates.
Climate requirements: Phantom Petunias thrive in full sun and require well-drained soil. They prefer a warm climate and should be protected from frost. Ideal growing temperatures range from 60°F to 75°F (15°C to 24°C).
