I have purchased Proven Winners annuals for several years and have never been disappointed in them. Last year I planted Supertunia Vista Bubblegum petunias in the ground and they were PHENOMENAL (make WAVES look shrimpy in comparison), they were the last annuals in the garden to give in to cold weather. LOVE THEM...even my husband was impressed by them! Thanks for producing this beautiful flower. Karen, KY.
