I bought a purple wave petunia, and was trying to get it out of the container, but it wouldn't come out, so I gave it a good shake and it fell out before I could catch it. Three new shoots with the flower buds are broken off. Is it still going to spread, or did I do too much damage? I'm sooooooo stupid......

First off, your not stupid, you just had a little
accident. [Wink]

I bought mine a month ago at
Wal-Mart and while taking mine out I too broke
off a stem or two. Mine seems to have filled
out some and is just as pretty as the rest of
them. I am guessing that there is hope for the
little guy. Good luck.

Thanks terob and digger, and lol, thanks for reminding me, I'm not stupid afterall. I put 2 of the broken off shoots into water, does anyone know if it will sprout roots? Maybe, I'll have more than one purplewave, out of it. Thanks again.
