Headliner™ Red - Petunia

Headliner™ Red is a semi-trailing annual petunia with medium vigor, red flowers, and early flowering. The official series profile gives a height of 10–16 inches and spread of 20–30 inches, fitting sunny containers, hanging baskets, and combination plantings. ## Flowers and placement The [Headliner Red cultivar page](https://www.selectanorthamerica.com/Trixi/SeriesInfo/?phid=048804010004463) identifies this selection and gives its product code and patent reference. Selecta describes the series as bearing large blooms; use the clear red color to brighten a seasonal display or spill over a pot rim. ## Growing conditions Provide full sun and moist, well-drained soil. [Illinois Extension’s petunia guide](https://extension.illinois.edu/flowers/petunia) notes that petunias may flower poorly in very heavy soil. A freely draining container mix is useful for pots and baskets. ## Maintenance Check containers regularly and water as the root zone begins to dry. Late-season pinching can help maintain compact growth and continued flowering. Petunia is usually grown as a warm-season annual, so planting and bloom timing vary with climate.
