Tidal Wave® Cherry Spreading Petunia

Tidal Wave® Cherry is the spreading petunia in the Tidal Wave series, identified by PanAmerican Seed as product PAS91421. With spacing and support affecting its form, it can make a 16–22-inch hedge, climb 2–3 feet when supported, or spread up to 5 feet as groundcover. ### Garden use Give this vigorous selection room to travel in a large bed or use it in a roomy container where long shoots can spill over an edge. Wider spacing encourages a broad flowering carpet; closer spacing produces a taller, denser mound. Its cherry-colored flowers extend the series’ spring-to-late-summer display. ### Growing conditions Choose full sun and moist, well-drained soil. Illinois Extension describes petunias as half-hardy annuals; in cold-winter regions use Tidal Wave Cherry for seasonal color rather than assigning a perennial hardiness zone. PanAmerican Seed’s exact product page supplies the code, spacing-dependent habit, dimensions, and flowering season. ## Maintenance Water consistently enough to prevent prolonged drying, especially in containers, while avoiding waterlogged soil. Guide or support shoots when a climbing form is wanted, and trim only when growth exceeds its allotted space. Replace the plant after frost ends the annual display.
