From the sun-loving brilliance of SunPatiens to the vibrant spread of Wave Petunias, Ball Australia’s latest releases are transforming gardens with stunning, low-maintenance colour that thrives in even the toughest Aussie summers!

• Ball Australia remains a family-owned business with a strong focus on innovation and quality. Their Melbourne-based facility produces tens of millions of plants each year, supporting both local and international markets.
• SunPatiens thrive in full sun and extreme summer conditions, available in 14 stunning colours. These plants are disease-resistant, with tough foliage and strong stems that handle heat, humidity, and rain with ease.
• Simply plant in good-quality potting mix or amended garden soil and water well to settle them in. They’re low-maintenance, requiring only light feeding with controlled-release fertiliser at half strength for optimal growth.
• Wave Petunias are fast spreading, producing vibrant blooms perfect for hanging baskets, pots, and garden beds. With 8 single colours and 2 mixes, they offer plenty of options to create a dynamic colour display in any space.
• The New Wave series boasts stronger growth habits and more intense colours compared to traditional petunias. Their enhanced genetics allow them to flower intensely, filling spaces quickly while remaining resilient and healthy.
• These petunias require little upkeep as faded blooms naturally drop off, eliminating the need for deadheading. They continue to bloom throughout the season, offering an ongoing display of colour with minimal effort.
• Ball Australia provides bold, informative labels for both SunPatiens and Wave Petunias to guide gardeners. These easy-to-follow instructions help ensure success, whether you’re a novice or an experienced gardener.
