Wave Petunia Sale Day

  • Stanley's Greenhouse 3029 Davenport Rd Knoxville, TN, 37920 United States (map)

Join us this Saturday, May 3, as we celebrate 30 years of gardening with the Wave Petunia with a buy one, get one free wave petunia sale. The sale will be in effect all day Saturday!

What is a wave petunia and how was it discovered? The wave petunia originated from a very unlikely source: a breeder for Kirin, a Japanese beer company, noticed an extraordinarily vigorous, spreading, wild petunia growing in their fields. Recognizing the petunia's singular qualities, Kirin partnered with PanAmerican Seed to produce this new petunia--that they called the Wave Purple Classic--and bring it to North America in 1995.

PanAmerican later merged with the Ball Seed Company becoming Ball Horticultural Company that has given us this petunia that exhibits a dramatic spread, has an exceptionally long bloom time, and has superior weather resistance.

Need a spreading, colorful groundcover for a full-sun location? Well, we have you covered with our wave petunias, and you cut your cost in half on Saturday during our buy one, get one free sale!
