Product Description
Tumbelina Petunias are the original and still the best double, trailing, fragrant petunias, and we're delighted to be able to bring you one of the newest and certainly one of the most unique.
'Crazy Ripple' is an absolute show stopper and will thrill you with its carnation-like flowers, each with masses of gorgeous magenta and lime-green bicolour petals. These layer upon each other in frilly waves, creating a perfect summer patio display - quite unlike any other available.
With strong-growing garden performance and extra-large exquisitely ruffled bicolour blooms, plant them in hanging baskets, window boxes and patio containers where they will excel.
Their gently trailing habit means they will tidily tumble over the edge of containers and trail for approx. 30cm (1ft), with flowers along the full length of the stems from late May to the first frosts. Really easy to grow, they need only a quick and occasional dead-heading to prolong displays.
Supplied as 6 plug plants, ready to grow on before planting out.

Plant Information
Top Tips
Care Guide
- Unpack plugs immediately, and stand them in water for an hour. If you can’t do this, they can sit in Mini Greenhouses for a week if upright and not too wet.
- Plugs may be slightly dry or yellow after being in a dark box in the post but they’ll quickly recover. Put them somewhere warm, light and airy such as a windowsill or greenhouse.
- When potting on, handle plugs carefully. Pot on using our 9cm pots in Shuttle Trays, using good multi-purpose compost.
- Give your plants a good water initially, then only when the top compost starts to dry. They don’t like to be left in standing water.
- Plant approx. 20cm (8”) apart to allow them room to grow. Feed using a high-potash feed such as Blooming Fast Superior Soluble Fertiliser for Flowers & Fruits, to encourage flowering.
- Dead-head when flowers fade to encourage more flowers.
