A Burst of Color

Supertunia ‘Day Break Charm’

 

Like all Proven Winners, Supertunia ‘Day Break Charm’ really lives up to its name, delivering a burst of color that is hard to resist.  This new petunia has vibrant sunshine yellow and watermelon pink flowers that attract butterflies and hummingbirds.  Its mounding and trailing habit is ideal for hanging baskets, containers and for tucking into the perennial border to create a long season of bloom.

Easy to grow in full- or part-sun (full sun is best), this annual reaches 8-12 inches high and trails up to 24 inches with a spread of 18-24 inches. Drought- and heat-tolerant, it needs no deadheading, but should be fertilized regularly for continuous bloom.
