PETUNIA (qa) Grp. 4 

PETUNIA, RUFFLED 
Petunia seed is very fine and will 
germinate best when covered very 
lightly (about 1/16”) with finely sifted 
soil. To avoid washing the seed out 
of the soil, water with a very fine, 
gentle spray. A pane of glass over the 
seed flat or pot will aid greatly in 
keeping the soil evenly moist. Trans- 
plant seedlings to flats or pots of 
rich, light soil when large enough to 
handle. 
Though Petunias grow best in cool 
conditions. the seed will germinate 
most readily in heat, such as provided 
by a hot bed or warm greenhouse.
