🌱 Growing Tips
Sophistica® Lime Bicolor is available as pelleted seed, making it easy to plant evenly in trays or cells. Start seeds indoors 8–10 weeks before your last frost date for strong, early plants. Keep them in a sunny, warm location until transplanting.
Plant outdoors after danger of frost has passed. Petunias prefer full sun, well-drained soil, and benefit from regular feeding for nonstop blooms.
