Check out the Avalanche Super Petunia Series at your Fred Meyer Garden Center. This special variety of seedling super petunias brings true colors to the class - Red, Salmon, Lilac, Pink, Lavender, White and Rose.

You'll be amazed by the blooms covering these plants. The Avalanche flowers fully - from the center outward - compared to the Wave series of petunias that bloom on the tips.

Another excellent choice for brilliant summer-long color is the Wave Super Petunia. The Blue Wave is one of 2003's All America Selection winners, and the Lavender Wave was a 2002 winner.

Light requirement: Super Petunias love the sunshine - the more the better!

Water and fertilizer: It takes lots of water to make this many flowers, so be sure to take good care of them whether in flowerbeds or containers. Plus, use a good fertilizer on a regular schedule to bring on an avalanche of summer color.

Suggested uses: Spreading, trailing Super Petunias are ideal in flowerbeds, patio containers and huge hanging baskets! For a striking patriotic planting , mix the Avalanche White, Avalanche Red and Wave Blue.

Come see Avalanche and Wave Super Petunias for yourself at your Fred Meyer Garden Center.
