Vista, California – Add delicious color to your garden with the brand new Crme
Brule petunia. The flowers of Crme Brule stand out with their unique deep
russet throat that blends into a honey hued middle with touches of pink on its
creamy border.
Like most petunias, Crme Brule will grow best with full sun, moderate
amounts of water, and a good dose of slow release fertilizer. Hanging baskets
and containers are a great way to show off the nice mounding growth habit of
this exceptional garden plant. Individual plants can grow up to 12 high and
over 18 wide, filling out a landscape planting nicely.
The unique hues of russet, honey, and soft cream tie in beautifully with the
natural colors that are currently popular in home decorating. Crme Brule has
that same soft and natural color pallet, comments Lisa Heredia, program manager
for VIVA!. Gardeners will be attracted to its interesting combination of color
tones.
VIVA! Crme Brule Petunia can be found nationwide at The Home Depot stores
