The Limbo Picotee Mix Petunia is a charming compact variety that produces masses of brightly coloured blooms edged with crisp, contrasting picotee borders. In Cape Town’s climate, it flowers prolifically from late spring right through summer into early autumn (October–April), offering a long season of bold, eye-catching colour.
This variety stays naturally low and tidy, making it excellent for borders, baskets, patio pots, window boxes, and colourful edging. A lively burst of colour for any sunny spot, delivering reliable performance and cheerful blooms all season long.

Why You’ll Love It

  • Beautiful picotee-edged petals create a crisp, decorative finish on every bloom.
  • Bursts into colour early and continues flowering for months in Cape Town’s warm season.
  • Compact habit keeps beds neat and is ideal for containers and mixed displays.
  • Highly attractive to pollinating insects and garden-friendly wildlife.
  • Performs exceptionally well with regular feeding and good sunlight exposure.


Plant & Care

Plant the Limbo Picotee Mix in compost-enriched, well-draining soil and position it in full sun for the best flower production. Water consistently, especially during Cape Town’s hot, dry spells, but avoid over-saturating the soil. Remove faded flowers regularly to extend the blooming period and maintain a tidy appearance. Feed with a balanced liquid fertiliser every two weeks to support vibrant colour and strong growth. Lightly pinch back stems if needed to encourage bushiness.


Did You Know?

Picotee petunias were originally bred to highlight natural colour variations caused by temperature shifts , meaning their crisp borders often become even more defined during warm Cape Town days.
