Petunia is a genus of approximately  35 flowering plants native to South America that belongs to the nightshade family (Solanaceae).

  • A genus is a taxonomic category that ranks below family and above species in biological categorization.
  • A genus is made up of species with similar traits.
  • The majority of petunia species are annual herbs.
  • The leaves are sessile (i.e., they don't have a petiole or leaf stem), oval-shaped, and have smooth margins; some have small sticky hairs.
  • Five united or partially fused petals and five green sepals make up the funnel-shaped flowers.
  • The majority of species are pollinated by insects( Entomophilous), however P. exserta is pollinated by hummingbirds(Ornithophilous).
  • The Fruit is a dry capsule.
  • The flowers are speckled or veined in contrasting colours and range in colour from pristine white to deep crimson or purple.
  • Single-bloom and double-bloom variations are available.
