They flourish under long summer days, preferring at least six hours of direct sunlight. The Firefly Petunia’s unique glow is most visible in fully dark environments. Nighttime light interference from street lights, porch lights, or other light sources will affect the visibility of Firefly Petunia’s natural glow.
