Petunias

17 years ago

I had some petunias come back from last year, they were some of the nicest petunias I ever had.I potted three of them and are wondering if anyone had any experience with over wintering petunias in the house, will they keep all winter, if so will they flower.

Happy Halloween. No, I never tried to over winter them in the house. If you want them to come back, be sure to save some seed. You can winter sow the seed. They re-seed easily, too. Good luck.
