Petunia Express Red Ice Seeds
Petunia Express Red Ice Seeds produce striking large red flowers with crisp white edges, creating a bold and eye-catching display throughout the summer. This early-flowering Petunia variety is an excellent choice for bedding displays, containers, patio pots, window boxes, and garden borders.
The small seeds are supplied pelleted, making them much easier to handle and sow accurately. Pelleted Petunia seed is widely used by professional growers but is equally useful for home gardeners, particularly when working with naturally tiny Petunia seeds.
