Enjoy lovely, long-lasting flowers in a bold color with the Supertunia Mini Vista® Midnight Petunia. This petunia hybrid is a fast grower that is easy to maintain. Bell-shaped flowers are a deep, velvety purple and bloom from planting until fall. Flowers grow along trailing stems dotted with small, green foliage. Pollinators enjoy the blooms and will enliven your garden with movement and beauty.
Feature the Supertunia Mini Vista® Midnight Petunia in borders, mixed beds, or containers. The trailing stems make an excellent ground cover or will fill the role of filler in a container. The trailing stems look beautiful in a hanging basket or window box. This hybrid requires minimal care and can thrive in the heat of summer and dry conditions. The Supertunia Mini Vista® Midnight Petunia is an annual in most areas, but this plant does grow as a perennial in zones 10 and 11.
Supertunia Mini Vista® Midnight Petunia Care
This beauty needs rich soil that is moist and well drained. Water when the top few inches of soil are dry. Potted plants need water as often as daily, depending on the conditions. Feed the plant using a balanced fertilizer when planting and at midsummer to encourage new growth and abundant flowers. The Supertunia Mini Vista® Midnight Petunia does best in areas that receive 4 to 6 hours of sunlight.
This plant has a mounded growth habit. Let the stems trail or pinch back new growth if you want to encourage a more compact and bushy look. The plant may look leggy or straggly partway through the growing season, so trim back the growth by one-third. Follow up a rejuvenating cut with an application of fertilizer to promote new growth. Container-grown plants can be cut back in the fall and moved indoors before the weather turns cold.
Supertunia Mini Vista® Midnight Petunia Spacing
The Supertunia Mini Vista® Midnight Petunia will grow 6 to 12 inches tall and spread or trail 18 to 24 inches. Plant 4 to 5 of these Petunia hybrids in a large container or space plants in a bed or border 12 to 18 inches apart.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
