Petunia help

Posted by mmsc (My Page) on

Hello,
I wanted to add this specific petunia color to my garden:

This one on the picture is "Supertunia Bordeaux" but it's grown from cuttings, and I can't find them here in Brazil. So I'd like to know if is there a seed grown petunia that has this color?

Thanks,
Mauricio

Ok, so I have the answer to my own question.. both Celebrity Blue Ice and Carpet Blue Lace look like the picture(except they aren't trailing petunias).
Has anyone tried any of those?

Celebrity Blue is my favorite color petunia! However, it does not look like the picture. The color of it is light purple, like the lighest part of the flowers above, but the throat is not dark - the whole flower is light purple, with a very small white throat (not noticeable until you look into it). It is a beautiful color, though!!

Hey mxk3,
Thanks for the info! I'm sure Blue Ice is a nice color, but I'm looking for a petunia light in color with dark veins and a dark throat.

From the pictures I found, celebrity plum ice may look like what I want, but it's hard to tell as most pictures seem edited.. for some reason the seed companies add a blue hue to every single flower image in their websites.
