Luxurious Deep Blue-Purple Blooms

Petunia 'Navy Velour' is a standout annual bedding plant renowned for its luxurious deep blue-purple flowers. This modern Petunia hybrid creates a dense, velvety carpet of colour—perfect for dramatic displays in beds, borders, containers, or hanging baskets.

• Breathtaking Blooms: The inky-blue, velour-textured flowers cover the plant throughout the summer and into autumn, adding elegance and boldness to any outdoor space.
• Non-Stop Colour: Expect continuous flowering from June through October. Its long-lasting blooms ensure your garden stays vibrant well into the season.
• Tough & Reliable: 'Navy Velour' is bred for resilience. It bounces back after rain and keeps its stunning look even during unsettled British summers.
• Lush Groundcover: With a compact height (15-30cm) but spreading habit (up to 100cm), it fills gaps quickly and helps suppress weeds along borders and paths.
• Versatile Uses: Plant in containers, window boxes, or hanging baskets for a cascade of colour. Combine with lighter Petunias or silver foliage plants like Dichondra 'Silver Falls' for striking contrast.
