Variety traits

Petunia flower color

Petunia Juss.

Petunia flower color is a key ornamental trait evaluated on a five-point scale, serving as an indicator of cultivar conformity, mineral nutrition levels, and the stability of growing conditions.

In the reference 59 varieties crop Petunia, where this is mentioned in the description.

In the state variety testing system, color is assessed visually during the period of mass flowering. Expert evaluation takes into account the primary tone, petal texture, and the presence of additional elements: spots, stripes, veining, and margins. High scores are awarded to varieties with a clear, saturated color and a pronounced contrasting pattern.

Petunia color intensity is subject to change under the influence of external factors. In direct sunlight, the color may fade, and under low light or adverse weather conditions, the expression of the pattern weakens. The level of mineral nutrition and the pH of the cell sap directly influence the accumulation of anthocyanins, which determine the final shade of the plant.
