Surfinia Petunias

Bring your garden to life with the vibrant blooms of Petunia Surfinia!

Surfinia petunias are celebrated for their exceptional trailing habit and profusion of colourful flowers. Developed from the Petunia genus, these annuals are renowned for their weather resistance and reliable performance in UK gardens.

Why Choose Surfinia Hanging Baskets?

• Long-Lasting Colour: Surfinia petunias flower continuously from late spring into autumn, providing months of bold colour.
• Spectacular Trails: Each plant produces stems that can reach up to 90cm (35 inches), creating lush, cascading displays ideal for baskets or containers.
• No-Fuss Gardening: Supplied pre-planted in a generous 25cm (10in) basket—simply hang, water, and enjoy.

Growing Guide

• Light: Prefers full sun but tolerates partial shade.
• Soil: Thrives in well-drained, fertile compost. Use a multipurpose or container mix for best results.
• Watering: Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged—Surfinia petunias appreciate regular watering, especially during hot spells.
• Feeding: Feed weekly with a high-potash fertiliser to encourage prolific flowering.
• Hardiness: Grown as annuals in the UK; not frost-hardy. Plant out after the last frost.

Caring for Your Surfinia Baskets

• Potted & Ready: No planting required—just hang in your chosen spot!
• Deadheading: Remove spent flowers regularly to keep plants blooming vigorously.
• Pest & Disease: Generally robust; monitor for aphids or mildew in humid conditions.

Design Inspiration & Companion Plants

• Baskets & Containers: Use alone for a bold statement or combine with trailing lobelia, bacopa, or ivy-leaved pelargoniums for varied texture and colour.
• Tumbling Over Walls: Place at the edge of raised beds or low walls for a natural waterfall effect.
