Description: Mexican petunia plant can be grown almost anywhere, as long as temperatures are warm enough. They are tolerant of heat, humidity, flooding, and droughts, and they can be planted in dry as well as boggy areas. Once established, these plants don’t require much attention beyond the occasional watering and deadheading. Mexican petunias are also disease resistant, though these plants occasionally can have problems with spider mites. Mexican petunias are fast growers and quick spreaders. They easily reseed themselves and can quickly overtake native flora. According to the University of Florida, they are considered invasive in Florida. This Mexico-native evergreen perennial is not actually a petunia, despite its name. However, it is known for its petunia-like purple flowers that attract bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. Its leaves are dark green and lance-shaped. Hardiness zones: 8-11 USDA. Plants are shipped bare root in zip-loc bags to preserve moisture. We offer combined shipping discounts, contact me please.
