Easy Wave® Velour Burgundy - Spreading Petunia

Easy Wave® Velour Burgundy is listed by PanAmerican Seed as Spreading Petunia Easy Wave® Burgundy Velour, a full-sun selection with burgundy-red flowers, dark veining, and a mounded, spreading habit. The grower page lists a height of 6–12 inches and a spread of 30–39 inches, with flowering from spring through late summer. [PanAmerican Seed](https://www.panamseed.com/Products/048602869030939/spreading-petunia-easy-wave-burgundy-velour/) ## In the garden The velvety burgundy color and dark eye bring depth to containers, baskets, borders, and landscape plantings. PanAmerican describes the Easy Wave series as more mounded and more controlled in spread than classic Wave petunias, making it useful where a broad carpet is desired without the same degree of reach. Its source-listed width spans roughly 2½ to 3¼ feet. ## Growing conditions Set it in full sun and moist, well-drained soil. Petunias generally flower best with good drainage and consistent moisture; avoid very heavy, saturated soil.

Pinching late in the season can help keep the plant compact. Allow room for its spreading stems, and remove damaged or faded growth to keep the planting tidy.
