When warmer weather arrives, it’s time to think about planting annuals, which will brighten up the yard with months of continuous color. Petunias are one of the most popular summer flowers for their vibrant long-lasting blooms, vigorous growth, and mounding, spreading or trailing habit that makes them perfect for hanging baskets.

With so many varieties to choose from, the possibilities for petunia hanging basket combinations are endless. While a single variety can be planted by itself, petunias really show off when paired with other petunias in complementary or contrasting colors and patterns. Here are some tips for how to create your own spectacular petunia hanging baskets.
