Which are the best varieties of Petunia?

these varieties must be interesting and new

Which are the best varieties of Petunia?
You are asking a subjective question. What I think is best is not what someone else will agree. When a NEW variety is developed, those who market such items pick what they THINK is "best" for what-ever reason(s) they base their opinion. Best is categorized into color, size, resistance to things, etc. and all of those things combined. What do you like? Look at the 2007 offerings by the seed companies such as Gurney's and make a selection. My personal preference for petunias with a trailing tendency, F-ones, with large blossoms in a wide selection of color from solid to stripes because that is how I decorate the patio with them in containers.

Reply:The "best" are the new hybrid "Wave Petunia" and million bells. These varieties do not require being pinched back.
