Headliner™ Electric Purple Sky - Petunia

Headliner™ Electric Purple Sky is a named petunia with dark magenta-purple blooms and white star-like speckles. Selecta lists it in the Headliner series with early flowering and a semi-trailing habit ([Selecta Electric Purple Sky profile](https://www.selectanorthamerica.com/SpringPlants/SeriesInfo/?phid=048804010044539); [University of Missouri Extension](https://ipm.missouri.edu/MEG/2021/2/annualBeddingPlants2021-DT/)). ## Growing Conditions The Headliner series profile lists sun exposure and a mature range of 10–16 inches tall by 20–30 inches wide. Grow petunias in full sun and moist, well-drained soil. Avoid heavy soil or standing water, which can reduce flowering and stress roots. ## Garden Use Use this named selection in a sunny basket, patio container or border where its flowers can be appreciated. Leave enough room for spreading stems and maintain airflow around the foliage. ## Maintenance Check pots regularly in warm or windy weather, since container mix dries faster than garden soil. Water thoroughly when the surface begins to dry, then allow excess water to drain away. Remove faded flowers and trim untidy stems as needed. Occasional pinching late in the season can help petunias stay compact and flowering ([Illinois Extension petunia guide](https://extension.illinois.edu/flowers/petunia)).
