This season i am going to plant Petunia Double F-1 Madness in eight separate colors along Antirrhinum F-1 Sonnet in six separate colors & dropping Pansy from my list.Pansy will be there but only in some pots not a complete bed this year.I was really impressed with the Madness last year.
I need a healthy feed back about the color arrangement.I wish to plant a min of 10 ft long stripe of each color.So Madness will be the main source of colors in my garden this spring Inshallah.
My wish list.

Re: My wish list.
I recommend you to follow the "COLOR WHEEL", it is to use contrasting colors , the colors opposite to each other in the wheel are used for contrast. goodluck for your project !

Re: My wish list.
The single petunia looks more striking than the double cultivars.
For colour palette in contrasting colours. For starters a bed of purple or dark blue petunia in the back and Yellow Petunia at the front. Dark purple/blue and yellow make a nice contrast. Or you can use the classical combination of red petunia at the back and white petunia at the front. Likewise you can also make a combination of using blue and white. For a subtle colour pattern of yellow and white. Even Orange and yellow etc.

Re: My wish list.
Khurram sb for many years i am planting Falcon,Ultra,Hulahoop , Eagle & Aladdin series.But this year i wanted to plant Double Madness.Last year also i planted it & it given good results.Khurram sb i don.t like the yellow one.I was very curious about yellow when Prism Sun Shine was introduced in the market & grown it but i did,t like it.
One thing is there that the single grandiflora performs better than the doubles.Falcon is my no one choice.Red & White combination is very nice.
Adnan i like contrasting colors.

Re: My wish list.
Friends i was going to plant Petunia Duo or Madness but its not available in separate colors.For that reason i am going to try an entirely new series Prism. The Prism sun shine is also from this series.
