Large two to three inch velvety carmine red flowers literally cover the easy-care spreading plants that rarely need deadheading because new blooms continuously pop-up and cover the spent blooms. Wave Carmine Velour Petunia is an excellent landscape performer and does equally as well in containers or hanging baskets as it does in the landscape. Constant color all summer long, AAS judges used words like “Non-fading,” “Vibrant,” and “Bright colors regardless of clouds or sun.”

  • • Looks fresh and newly opened month after month
  • • Scored high in vibrancy of color, creating a carpet effect
  • • Spreads prolifically as a ground cover, trailing big, colorful blooms

    Customer photo review of Petunia Seeds - Wave Carmine Velour

    These petunias are so beautiful. Very full growing, even at the bottom. Live in central Florida (9b) and this petunias have maddening through heat, humidity, no leafminers, etc. Would love to have this type of petunia offered in other colors. I will buy again!

    Clearly I payed for fancy packaging rather than seeds. I got 9 whole seeds.

    Customer photo review of Petunia Seeds - Wave Carmine Velour

    These flowers look beautiful and normally I'm very impressed with this company but this petunia seed packet only came with five seeds making the price per seed over a dollar. I had to order more from True Leaf Market they sent me so many seeds for about the same price.

    I only had three seeds germinate out of fifteen in the package, but the color is so gorgeous I think I will still try them again, and hope for better luck next time.

After speaking with our Customer Service Team, it seems we were able to resolve this for you. If you have any other issues, feel free to reach out!

    I haven't even planted these yet and even if they all germinate and produce beautiful plants, I will still consider this an outrageous price for 10 seeds. This company is already one of the most expensive, they should post their seed count with the price. Over 6 dollars for 10 seeds, what a joke!

    Store owner replied: Hello Victoria S. Thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand your concern regarding the seed count and pricing. Wave petunias, like Carmine Velour, are specialty hybrid varieties, and the seeds are more costly to produce, which is why packet counts are often lower than many standard varieties. The seed quantity is listed under the Planting Information tab on the product page, and our website team is currently working on making seed counts easier to find on the main page as well. Our team previously reached out with a resolution and would still be happy to assist. Please feel free to contact our customer service team at 855-440-2929, so we can help you with this. As always, we stand by our seeds and are here to help you have a positive shopping and growing experience!

    I’m very disappointed with the number of seeds in the packet. The fact that you don’t disclose the number of seeds in a packet should have been my clue that I was about to be ripped off. $5.99 for 10 seeds is highway robbery. I should have waited to make my purchase as Johnny’s now has petunia seeds, $5.45 for ONE HUNDRED SEEDS!!!! Never again, you have lost a customer. I have had problems with germination rates for other flowers from this company in the past. I thought I would give you another chance, shame on me.

    Store owner replied: Hello Amanda. Thank you for sharing your honest feedback with us. We're truly sorry for the disappointment regarding the seed count and understand your frustration. While we do list seed quantities under the Planting Information tab on each product page, we understand that this can be missed, and our website team is currently working to move this information to a more prominent location to help avoid future confusion. Pricing can vary based on variety and availability, especially for specialty seeds that are harder to source. We always strive to offer high-quality products backed by responsive customer support and a satisfaction guarantee. We're pleased our Customer Service Team could support you with this order and past ones, and help find a resolution that worked for you. We appreciate your time and the opportunity to continue improving!

    10 seeds for this price. Unbelievable. Don't buy this. Eden has taken a big step down in my estimation. You can't put even, like, 25 seeds in the package? Ripoff.
