Sun Spun® Pink Ice - Petunia

Sun Spun® Pink Ice is a compact annual petunia with clear pink flowers and a tidy, container-friendly habit. A cultivar-specific plant profile reports plants about 12 inches tall and 18 inches wide, with large blooms suited to containers and window boxes. ## Flowers and form The assigned selection is listed in Ball FloraPlant’s [Sun Spun variety roster](https://www.ballfloraplant.com/BFP/PdfAssets/pdfpage.aspx?pdfid=70). The exact Pink Ice profile from [Costa Farms](https://costafarms.com/blogs/plant-varieties/petunia-sun-spun-pink-ice) reports clear pink flowers and the compact mature size above. Ball FloraPlant’s [Sun Spun guide](https://www.ballfloraplant.com/Tools/PdfAssets/pdfpage.aspx?pdfid=13) describes the series as mounded-upright and compact, with a form suitable for pots and baskets. ## Growing conditions Use in full sun in a container, window box, or seasonal bed. Provide a well-drained growing medium. Ball’s series guide recommends letting the medium dry between waterings while avoiding sustained wilting and constantly saturated media. General [University of Illinois Extension petunia guidance](https://web.extension.illinois.edu/hortanswers/PlantDetail.cfm?PlantID=761&PlantTypeID=1) also calls for full sun and moist, well-drained soil. ## Maintenance Check container moisture regularly, especially during warm, breezy weather. Remove faded flowers when they detract from the display; deadheading often encourages annual petunias to continue flowering. Plant after local frost risk has passed and treat it as seasonal color rather than a frost-hardy perennial.
