Do petunias grow back every year?

Petunias are typically treated as annuals. They are planted in the spring, bloom throughout the warm months and then die in the fall when temperatures begin to drop. Petunias, though, are actually perennials. In year-round warm climates, they survive and sometimes bloom throughout the winter.

How long do petunias take to grow?

Petunia seeds are very small and need a lot of light to germinate. They take anywhere from 6 to 8 weeks to flower. You should start them indoors in moist, fertilized soil and then move them outside after 10 to 12 weeks. Do not place them outdoors until the plants have a least 3 leaves.

Are petunias easy to grow?

Petunias are among the most popular flowering annuals for good reason. Petunias are bright and lively, bloom from spring until frost, and scent the air with lovely fragrance. Best of all, petunias are amazingly easy to grow, both in the garden and in containers. There are literally hundreds of named petunia varieties.
