How to Sow Double Petunia Seed 
The seed of Double Petunias is very fine 
and should be sown inside in flats or pots, 
using a mixture of finely sifted soil, with the 
addition of some sand. Thoroughly water 
the soil and then lightly scatter the seed on 
the surface. Do not cover the seed with soil. 
The receptacle should be covered with a sheet 
of newspaper and a pane of glass, and kept in 
a warm location until the seedlings start to 
grow. It is important not to discard the 
small seedlings, as these usually produce 
the best double flowers.
