The Bordeaux produces very little....to no pollen; hence it might suit the needs of people with pollen allergies. This petunia flowers from center and 'buries it's dead' so well that it is considered SELF-CLEANING! It is also Powdery Mildew resistant! None of our pictures have been 'cleaned -up'; in order to testify to Bordeaux's performance in baskets and containers; however it's performance in 4" pots is also SECOND-TO-NONE, with it's non-invasive, dense,controlled growth. Note to commercial growers: Given correct temperatures, growth regulators are NOT required!!! Be sure to ask your landscaper or your local greenhouse plant supplier to add Supertunia®Bordeaux to your annual list of plants.
