Petunia ‘Scarlet Ripple Tumbelina’ – British Grown
A stunning trailing petunia with beautifully ruffled blooms, Petunia ‘Scarlet Ripple Tumbelina’ produces masses of richly coloured flowers in deep scarlet red tones with softer rippled highlights throughout the petals. The double blooms have an almost rose like appearance, spilling elegantly from hanging baskets, containers, and window boxes throughout summer. Bred for impressive flowering performance and long lasting colour, this variety creates a lush, overflowing display packed with texture and movement.
Perfect for patios, balconies, and sunny garden spaces, this British grown petunia flowers continuously through the warmer months and is especially effective when combined with other trailing summer plants.
Annual
Trailing, Flowering, Summer Bedding Plant
Flowers: Late spring to early autumn
Foliage: Spring to autumn
Scientific Name
Petunia ‘Scarlet Ripple Tumbelina’
Common Name
Double Trailing Petunia
Origin
A cultivated petunia variety bred for trailing growth, heavily ruffled double flowers, and long flowering performance. Commercially grown in the UK for summer bedding displays.
Pruning Tips
Regular deadheading helps encourage continuous flowering and keeps displays looking fresh. If plants become leggy later in summer, trim back lightly to encourage fuller regrowth.
Wildlife Value
The flowers can attract pollinators such as bees and hoverflies, particularly when grown alongside other nectar rich summer bedding plants.
Positioning
Prefers a sunny, sheltered position outdoors. Ideal for hanging baskets, containers, patio pots, and window boxes where the trailing stems can spill naturally over the edges.
Water
Water regularly during warm weather, especially in hanging baskets and containers which dry out quickly in summer. Keep compost evenly moist but avoid waterlogging.
Soil
Use a fertile, well draining compost rich in organic matter. A high quality peat free bedding compost works particularly well.
Food
Feed once a week throughout the growing season with a high potash liquid fertiliser to encourage abundant flowering.
Pet-safe
Generally considered non toxic to pets, though it is still best to discourage chewing or ingestion.
Sprouts Top Tips
Removing spent flowers regularly helps keep plants blooming for much longer and encourages fresh new buds throughout summer.
Extras
The heavily ruffled double blooms create a fuller, more luxurious appearance than standard petunias, making this variety especially effective in statement hanging displays.
Did You Know?
The Tumbelina series was specially bred for cascading growth and large double flowers, combining the classic trailing habit of petunias with blooms that resemble miniature roses.
