Petunia x hybrida F-1 hybrid. Annual. Recommended by Nan King of Walpole, NH, many years ago. She prefers Blue Wave’s plant habit to that of Purple Wave, finding it less rangy, more floriferous, and the foliage better at covering the underpinnings. Has bluish-purple flowers and mounding appearance that spreads large.
Improved to be more rounded with more branching and even more flowers in the center of the plant. This variety also blooms earlier, with only 9.5 hours of daylight, compared to the 10 hours needed by the original version. 2003 AAS. ~10,000 seeds/g.

Wave Series Petunia
Our customers have caught The Wave. Each slightly mounded plant carpets the ground with a 4x4' spread of vivid color. This versatile landscaping tool can be used as a low hedge, as a ground cover, or trailing from pots. Waves showed extreme drought tolerance in our trial, sailed through light frost, and bounced back after torrential rain. Although never deadheaded or cut back, the 3" flowers just kept coming and coming.
Culture: Plant in full sun where its robust performance and light fragrance can sweep you away.
