A stunning petunia innovation redefining floral elegance! This perennial, often grown as an annual for vibrant summer displays, presents a mesmerising sight with its ovate, sticky, and green to grey-green leaves. From late spring through autumn, ‘Designer Cappuccino’ unfolds trumpet-shaped flowers in a captivating hue of pale white, intricately veined with rich coffee tones. With its remarkable beauty and semi-trailing nature, this variety exudes sophistication in containers or bedding arrangements during the summer months. Its resilient character thrives, offering a wealth of delicate blooms even in adverse weather conditions.
Plant out when all risk of frost has gone into moist, well drained soil or peat-free general purpose potting compost. Provide a high-potash fertiliser (such as liquid seaweed or tomato feed) each week from June to September. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage further flowering.
