How to care for Hanging Petunias ?
-
Water hanging baskets any time the soil feels dry to the touch, as often as twice a day in warm weather.
-
Drench the soil until water runs out the bottom of the container, being careful not to wet the flowers or foliage.
-
Frequent fertilization is necessary because frequent watering washes nutrients away from the container.
-
Pinch back leggy sections of petunias as they grow.
-
Remove flowers as they begin to fade so that petunias don’t waste energy on producing seeds.
-
Check your petunias regularly for insects, unusual growths and discoloration.
