Ride the (F2) Wave
One of the nicest and best performing seed grown petunias is the Wave Petunia. Started in 1985 with the now famous "purple Wave", the petunia is today available in 6 colors and several new related varieties, too. This plant is very easy to start from seed, and produce offspring (F2 hybrids) which are equally as good as the parent plants.
