Attracts Bees, Heat Tolerant, Low Maintenance. Mountains of color in big gardens and containers! The biggest petunia series in the Ride The Wave family, Tidal Wave grows and grows and grows into an awesome, flower-filled hedge! These award-winning plants serve as excellent "screens" for unsightly air conditioners or to adorn wooden fences. They also work well in large planters. Space them 24 in. (60 cm) apart and watch them spread into an unbelievable groundcover!
Excellent landscape performer with terrific recovery from rain. The plants resist lodging, so they won’t fall open and expose a bare centre like other petunias can.
Height, spread and spacing: Growth habit is based on how closely plants are placed – the closer the spacing, the taller the plants. Spaced a minimum of 12 inches apart, Tidal Wave petunias form a dense, mounded hedge, 16 to 22 inches tall. Grown in a restricted space with support, they grow an extra 2 to 3 feet upward, like a vine.
Spaced up to 24 inches apart in the garden, the plants make a floriferous groundcover, spreading up to 5 feet across per plant.
