PETUNIJA - Petunia hybrida... Shot from street in Novi Sad...

Petunija je rasprostranjeni rod cveta - ljucih biljaka iz familije Solanaceae. Interesantno je da se u istoj familiji nalaze i biljka duvana, krompira, paradajza, paprike i mnoge druge. Vecina varijeteta koje vesamo u basti su hibridi.

Petunias are one of the best summer flowering annuals for massed display, and they also look good in pots and hanging baskets. The color range is huge, with varieties available in every color except orange. You can expect blooms throughout the summer and into autumn if faded flowers are removed regularly. Plants quickly grow to a height of 10-16 inches.

The very fine seeds are hard to handle, and you'll have better luck starting them indoors. Cover with a dusting of soil and water from the bottom of the pot to avoid dislodging seeds. When seedlings are 1-2 inches tall they can be transplanted outdoors at intervals of six to eight inches in soil that has been enriched with compost or manure. After the first flowering flush, cut the plants back to encourage a second blooming.

We still have one basket filled with pink petunia's, but they getting a bit wild, so I think it is time to remove them.
George, they are so cheap in the garden centre nearby that it is hardly neccesary to grow them ourselves - do you grow them yourself?
TFS this pink beauty.
