Planting Supertunia's in a hanging basket

17 years ago

Hi Everyone....I'm new to posting here so I hope someone can help me out. I wanted to plant some Supertunia's in hanging baskets that I already have. At my local Home Depot they sell them in 4.5 pots or quart. This is where my confusion begins lol. How many of these would I then use in a 10" hanging basket?

I'm use to buying them in 6-pks but seeing them in 4.5 containers is throwing me off! Help!!

I wouldn't put any more than two into that size container. In a very short time, you'll be thrilled.

If planting something else with the petunias, I'd just use one.

Great! Thanks so much for the help...I can't wait to start. Is it to early to plant my hanging baskets in zone 5b(MA)? I usually wait to Memorial Day Weekend but I'm getting the itch to do it sooner.
