Basically anything that will take the heat and maybe 2 hours direct evening sun would be good. I've already killed 2 hanging flower baskets because apparently they weren't able to withstand the heat and sun. I may just give up and get a giant cactus! lol
Thanks again  |
Most petunias will handle partial sun/partial shade and lots of light. Full sun is a misnomer...you have to take into consideration where. I live in Idaho and have a deck that has a Southwest exposure. In the afternoon it gets to be 120 degrees out there in August because of the reflective heat. I put petunias out there and if they don't get water twice a day, they die. They are full sun petunias! The ones I put in the pots on the other side that get about 4 hours of sun flourish! So, full sun is relative! They get lots of light!
Keep 'em watered!
