As the cold weather arrives, in autumn, usually waterings is interrupted because these plants can't bear harsh temperatures. Water rarely, about once every 1-2 weeks with 2-3 glasses of water , keeping the soil dry for a few days before watering again; when wetting we suggest avoiding surpluses, however to wet the soil deep down.
Generalities Petunia
These plants give origin to a brush with a rounded form. The Petunia is medium in size and 30 cm in height; in the spring, summer, autumn, winter it assumes a pink colouring. These plants aren't evergreens, which means they lose their leaves some months during the year. The Petunia have a one or two year development cycle.
Exposure Petunia
the Petunia should be grown in a bright place, with direct sunlight. These plants have an annual development, therefore when it becomes cold they deteriorate, and get completely eradicated.The Petunia can't stand temperatures below zero; they should be grown in cold green houses or at least in a place where they are sheltered by the wind; when every risk of late freezings has gone by we can place them outside or remove the protections.
Watering Petunia

Treatments Petunia
Generally during this time of year we suggest a pre-emptive treatment with wide range insecticide and with a systemic fungicide, to prevent the attack from part of the aphids and the development of fungus diseases, often favoured by a mild and damp climate.
Soil Petunia
We advise locating these annual plants in a dissolved soil, with an elevated drainage.
