Know before you buy
No, the Limbo GP series is genetically dwarf, meaning it naturally maintains a compact habit without the need for chemical growth regulators.
Pelleted seeds are coated in a smooth, uniform material that makes them easier to handle and see during the planting process, which is especially helpful for small seeds like petunias.
While they are ideal for pots and packs due to their compact nature, they will exhibit a slightly more vigorous spread when planted directly into garden beds and landscapes.
For the best results, maintain a soil temperature between 70-75°F. Under these conditions, you can expect germination to occur within 7 to 12 days.
No, this mix offers a diverse range of patterns, including solid colors, stripes, and bicolors, all while maintaining the large, grandiflora-sized blooms characteristic of the series.
