Supertunia® Saffron Finch is a new, sunny yellow Supertunia with a full, well-branched, rounded habit. Its flowers are a more intense yellow than Supertunia Limoncello, but they may transition to creamy yellow in southern climates. Try pairing Supertunia Saffron Finch with bold purples, reds and magentas for an especially eye-catching look. Its mounded trailing habit helps it mix beautifully with other medium to high vigor varieties in hanging baskets, upright containers and window boxes, and it can also be used as a flowering groundcover. Like all Supertunias, you can expect this colorful new petunia to bloom prolifically all season without deadheading. 

  • 4-12 inches tall and 18-24 inches wide at maturity
  • Annual except in zones 10-11
  • Plant in part to full sun (4+ hours daily)
  • Space plants 12-24 inches apart for best results
  • Produces sunny yellow flowers spring to hard frost
  • Maintains green foliage spring to hard frost
  • Great for landscapes, containers, groundcover, window boxes, hanging baskets
  • Attracts bees, butterflies and hummingbirds
  • Continuous bloomer, long blooming, heat tolerant, deadheading not necessary

The Eco+Grande features nutrients embedded in the container walls, which help plants grow bigger and faster throughout the season when planted in the ground. Be sure to remove the tabs from the container before planting. If you choose to plant in a container, we recommend taking the plant out of the Eco+Grande, breaking it apart, and mixing it into the soil at the time of planting. When the Proven Winners Eco+Grande container is discarded in the garbage can, it will naturally break down faster in a landfill than a traditional petroleum made container. The container will get smaller and smaller until microbes consume it, turning it back into an inert organic product. Learn more about this in our blog.

Care: Fertilize weekly with Proven Winners Water Soluble Plant Food for best performance. Give a light trim anytime you think it's needed or at least once in July and once in August. Never trim off more than 20% of the branches.

I've been very impressed with this petunia. It has stayed in bloom for over 3 months with no pruning, or a reviving haircut. I planted it in an urn and in flower boxes with other plants and I love how the yellow color works with white, blue and coral. I use a mix of equal parts time-release fertilizer and a granular organic fertilizer, stirred into my containers before I plant, and these petunias haven't needed anything else so far. I anticipate that this plant will continue flowering into the fall.

The saffron finch petunias planted in full sun died with the extreme heat we had this summer. But the plants look very good in the partial sun area which doesn’t get the hottest afternoon sun.

I’ve always wanted to try Limoncello but never found them in a greenhouse. This year I ordered Supertunia saffron finch. They are beautiful with Supertunia bubblegum and Suberbena raspberry in half barrel planters and Superbena whiteout in planters over the railing.
