If you are growing Petunias from seed it is best to start them inside before planting them outside in the spring. Make sure you leave enough room between plants.
Flowering in Summer
From Early Summer TO Late Summer
The petunia will bloom in the summer, producing plenty of flowers over this period.
Propagation by seed
From Late Winter TO Early Spring
Sow seed under glass in potting compost in early spring.
