Origin Note: Developed in Texas for extreme heat and long-lasting color
I scattered these seeds in a patchy corner of my yard, and now it’s full of color. The Laura Bush petunias filled in the space nicely and have been blooming for months with almost no care.
These petunias can take the heat! They handled triple-digit temps better than anything else in my garden. The plants are bushy and full of blooms. I’m already planning to grow more next year.
Nearly all my seeds germinated and grew into healthy, full plants. The flowers have a soft, vibrant color that stands out without being too loud. Really pleased with how they’re doing in containers.
I was looking for something heat-tolerant and colorful, and the Laura Bush petunias didn’t disappoint. They grew fast, filled in quickly, and are covered in blooms. Super easy to care for too.
These petunias surprised me with how well they handled the hot, dry summer here in Oklahoma. The blooms are bright and cheerful, and the plants just keep going without much fuss.
