Good Morning,
Last year I bought a few baskets of wave petunias. Is it possible to start new petunias from the seeds from last year's plant's seeds?
They sure are tiny!
Thanks in advance,
Dana

It has been my experience that Wave Petunias reseed very easily. The color sometimes reverts back to a rosy pink, but the plants are strong and healthy. If you look in the hanging basket they were in, you may see little tiny plants already emerging. I usually have volunteer petunias all over the place. However, since this year I have chickens free-ranging part of the time, I don't know if they have eaten the seeds/seedlings. I would like to buy some Wave Petunia seed, to get specific colors, but haven't found it on the seed racks.
