E3 Easy Wave Pink, a hybrid Spreading Petunia, is a colorful annual flower. PanAmerican developed this cultivar for its early, efficient production and long bloom. It offers a mounded, spreading habit of 6-12" tall and 25-32" wide, with pink flowers from spring through late summer. The E3 Easy Wave series is the easiest to produce in a commercial greenhouse, bringing uniformity, moderate vigor, and less need for PGRs than the Easy Wave series. All the Wave and Easy Wave Petunias perform well in retail settings, offering a better product to your customers for longer. This plant flourishes in full sun, spreading vibrant color in combination containers, hanging baskets, and landscape borders. Create attractive displays of color by growing E3 Easy Wave Pink alongside E3 Easy Wave Coral and E3 Easy Wave White.

Coach Your Customer
1. Space plants 10-15" apart in well-drained soil in full sun.
2. Water two-three times a week or more often in drought or containers.
3. Fertilize weekly with an all-purpose feed.
4. Remove plants once cold weather sets in.
General Growing Tips For Your Seedling Tray
For best results with E3 Easy Wave Pink, grow one seedling plug per 1801-cell or 4-inch container or three to four seedling plugs per 10-inch basket. Use well-drained soil with a pH of 5.5-6.2, EC of 1.5-2.0 mS/cm, and moderate feed (225-300 ppm N). This plant requires 10 hours of daylight to bloom. Provide temperatures of 61-75 daytime and 57-65 nighttime. Use a daminozide spray 7-10 days after transplanting to encourage branching and control stretching, then a drench with paclobutrazol 7-10 days later and additionally as needed. Temperatures around 50 degrees will delay flowering. Watch for aphids, thrips, fungus gnats, shore flies, botrytis, rhizoctonia, and pythium.
Flowering
Pink flowers bloom from spring through summer. This cultivar has good cold tolerance to 40 degrees.
Pinching
This plant doesn't require pinching.
Spacing
Space containers for adequate airflow and sunlight penetration around the base and foliage of each plant. Space cellpacks and 4-inch containers 8" apart and 10-inch baskets 24" apart. Adjust spacing as needed for sufficient circulation in your commercial greenhouse.
Height Control
E3 Easy Wave Pink responds well to daminozide and paclobutrazol at lower rates than the Easy Wave or Wave series. Apply a spray of daminozide at 2,500-3,000 ppm seven to 10 days after transplanting to encourage branching and control stretching. Seven to 10 days after that, apply a paclobutrazol drench at 2-3 ppm. After that, drench with paclobutrazol as needed. Lower temperatures delay flowering, allowing you to control crop time with proper day length.
Pests
Scout for thrips, aphids, fungus gnats, and shore flies as part of your commercial greenhouse's Integrated Pest Management plan.
Aphids are small, soft-bodied insects that cause damage by sucking sap from plant tissue. They reproduce quickly and are particularly attracted to young growth. Curling and yellowed leaves, stunted growth, and stickiness on leaves are signs of an infestation. These insects also spread diseases and reproduce rapidly. Use biological controls or horticultural oils to discourage and kill aphids.
Fungus Gnats are small, dark flies that lay eggs in damp soil where larvae feed on plant roots, causing damage and death. Watch for adult gnats flying around the plants and check for larvae in the soil. Prevent infestations by allowing the soil to dry between waterings and controlling humidity in the greenhouse. Fungus Gnats thrive in moist conditions. Catch adult gnats with sticky traps to prevent them from laying eggs. Use beneficial nematodes or apply Bacillus thuringiensis.
Shore Flies are small black flies attracted to algae and organic matter. Watch for adult flies around plants and larvae in the soil. Sanitize surfaces and prevent algae growth in your greenhouse. Remove any extraneous organic matter, use sticky traps to catch adult flies, and use beneficial nematodes to kill larvae.
Thrips are tiny insects that eat plant tissue and can transmit viruses. Watch for silvery-white streaks or black spots on foliage and distorted growth. Use natural predators (like predatory mites), insecticidal soap, neem oil, and sticky traps to control infestations and prevent spread.
Disease
Watch for signs of Botrytis, Pythium, and Rhizoctonia, especially during short days and under low light or high humidity. Use preventative measures in your commercial greenhouse. Practice good sanitation, water at the base of each plant and allow the soil to dry between waterings, and provide good airflow in your greenhouse. Space containers for adequate circulation and sunlight penetration around the base of each plant.
Botrytis is a common fungal disease that causes brown spots on stems, leaves, and flowers. Remove and destroy affected plants, maintain appropriate humidity levels, and apply fungicides with boscalid, fenhexamid, or iprodione to control the spread. Water plants in the morning and allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings.
Pythium and Rhizoctonia are fungal diseases that cause stunted growth, yellowed leaves, and plant death by eating away at the plant's roots. Use well-draining planting media and provide good airflow and spacing in your greenhouse. Allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings and apply fungicides with active ingredients abamectin, spinosad, or imidacloprid to combat these diseases.
Planting E3 Easy Wave Pink Liners
We recommend growing one seedling plug per 1801-cell or 4-inch container or three-four per 10-inch basket. Use well-drained soil and completely bury the plug centered or evenly spaced in the container. Finish times are slightly shorter in summer. Cell packs finish in 4-7 weeks, depending on cultural conditions and season.
Rooted Cuttings
Cuttings vary in size between different plant families. These rooted starter plants will arrive ready to be transplanted in to your final container. If they are to be used in a landscape application, you will need to establish them in a 4 inch pot or an 1801 before planting outside.

Before we take this relationship any further...
It looks like this is the first time you've added anything to your cart.
We just wanted to remind you that we are a wholesale starter plant company that sells to businesses, schools, clubs, and other non-profits. State law dictates that you must be growing for resale to order from us since we are not collecting sales tax.
If we aren't a match, we understand. It's not you, it's us.
We would look awful in orange jumpsuits.
