Easy Wave® Rosy Dawn Pelleted (F1) Petunia Seed
About this variety
A low, spreading petunia for coverage.
Easy Wave is a vigorous spreading petunia that copes well with changeable conditions and holds up through the season. Plants stay about 6–12" tall but spread up to 3' wide, covering ground and spilling over the edges of pots. Blooms are 2–3" across. Rosy Dawn has coral-rose petals around a cream center.
Use it in beds, baskets and mixed containers.
Plants grow 6–12" tall and flower about 70–95 days from sowing. Pelleted seed with a conventional coating (not NOP-compliant). F1 hybrid.

Growing Information
Days to germination
6–10 days at 72–77°F (22–25°C).
Transplanting
Start plants indoors; direct sowing is not recommended. Sow 4–6 weeks before planting out if you grow in small plug trays (128- to 288-cell), or 6–8 weeks ahead for bigger cells and pots. Petunia seed needs light to sprout, so do not bury it: a very thin dusting of vermiculite is enough to hold it in place. Keep the surface moist so the pellet coating softens and splits. Once seedlings are up, grow them at 60–75°F (16–24°C), harden them off, and plant out when frost danger has passed.
