You will love the brilliant color play on these 2-inch blooms of palest pink and deepest purple, not to mention the freely trailing habit and long bloomtime. But the best feature of this Petunia is that it self-cleans, so you never have to deadhead the spent blooms. And that’s important, because there are dozens and dozens of fresh flowers over a long, lovely season.

Opera Supreme™ Raspberry Ice reaches just 6 to 10 inches high but trails 3½ to 4 feet long, tossing out blooms every step of the way. Bred just for baskets and other “vertical” settings, it also scrambles along the garden bed beautifully. And the flowering stems remain neat, so this plant needs no trimming to keep flowering and looking its best all summer.

If you love the ease and beauty of the Wave Petunias, you will love the extra color and beauty—plus the same carefree trailing habit—of Opera Supreme™ Raspberry Ice. Give its AAS-winning cousin Pink Morn and Green Thumb Award winner Lilac Ice a try too—all three combine beautifully.

This seed comes as a “pellet”. “Pelleted” seeds are small seeds that have been clay-coated to make them larger and more uniform in size and shape, making them easier to handle when planting.
