Petunia "Gioconda Bright red" F1
Petunia Joconda Bright Scarlet F1 (Multiflora Trailing Cascading) - Petunia multiflora.
A breakthrough in breeding: petunia that can bloom all year round!
Annual. Plant diameter 100 cm. Plant height 20 cm. Flower diameter 6 cm.
A completely new type of petunia with unique characteristics. Joconda is the first petunia in the world to produce a stunning number of flowers due to male sterility (does not produce seeds), which creates competition for petunias and surfinias that are propagated by cuttings. Plants with incredibly powerful branching shoots (covering the soil up to 1 meter in diameter, with a height of 20 cm) are covered with a huge number of flowers! When grown in pots, the shoots cascade over the edges.
Petunia Joconda is able to adapt to a wide range of temperatures - from 8 to 40 C. When the temperature drops, the plants do not die, but only slow down growth and flowering. By maintaining optimal growing conditions (11 hours of daylight and a temperature of +20+22 °C), you can keep the plants blooming all year round, which opens up new possibilities in decorative gardening.
Petunia Joconda is ideal for producing seedlings in greenhouses: the plants are uniform, very strong, and most importantly, flowering begins at an early stage.
Ideal for growing in pots, hanging baskets and in open ground.
Sowing.
Seeds in granules! In order to facilitate sowing and cultivation of small-seeded crops, a system was developed to coat each seed with a special composition. When moisture hits the granule, the shell crumbles. Sow in February-March for seedlings. The granules are placed on the surface of slightly compacted and moistened soil, without covering them, moistened from a sprayer, covered with glass and kept at a temperature of +20+24 °C, preventing the shell of the granule and compost from drying out until the seedlings germinate and, periodically, removing drops of condensate from the surface of the glass. Seedlings appear only in the light (excluding direct sunlight) on the 10-15th day. After the appearance of the first true leaf, the seedlings are ventilated. And in the future, the glass is removed, gradually lowering the temperature to +14+16 °C.
Seedlings do not tolerate high temperatures and waterlogging. Hardened seedlings are planted in the ground after the end of spring frosts at a distance of 15-20 cm.
Care: grows best in well-lit places with light, fertile soil. Responds gratefully to watering and regular feeding.
Flowering: from June until frost.
