Supertunia® Royal Velvet® Petunia

Vigorous, Deep Purple Petunia for Containers and Landscapes

Bring bold, long-lasting color to your garden with Supertunia® Royal Velvet® (Petunia hybrid). This award-winning, best-selling annual produces deep blue-purple flowers abundantly from planting until frost, creating a striking contrast against its lush green foliage. Its mounded, trailing growth habit allows it to function as both a filler and spiller, making it perfect for containers, combination planters, window boxes, and front-of-bed landscapes.

Heat- and drought-tolerant, this low-maintenance petunia requires no deadheading and thrives in both sun and part sun. Royal Velvet® attracts butterflies and hummingbirds, adding movement and life to your garden while providing continuous blooms all season long.
