Calibrachoa (Calibrachoa)
Color Name: Red Hawaii
This striking calibrachoa features graceful, petite blooms. Suitable for hanging baskets, window boxes and patio containers, it is sure to add splash of Hawaiian pizzazz with its fun bicolored blossoms. This calibrachoa is draped in vibrant red and yellow shades of trumpet-shaped flowers that require little maintenance. Calibrachoas are wonderful for attracting bees and hummingbirds into the garden, where they flower from May until October.
Growing Tips: To keep your calibrachoas happy and healthy plant them in full sun (6 hours or more) and be careful not to overwater them. Calibrachoa do not like "wet feet." If you notice your calibrachoas are wilting even when the soil is damp, chances are it is root rot. Water when the soil on top feels dry to the touch. If you tuck them into garden beds instead of pots, make sure the soil is well drained. No need to deadhead blossoms because these adorable plants are self-cleaning!
Don't let these tiny flowers fool you! They are heavy feeders. We suggest fertilizing every two weeks during the hot summer months of June, July and August with Maxsea, which you can purchase at Zehr's. When planting in containers, hanging baskets and window boxes, we recommend using our potting soil which is specially formulated for our plants.
Do not hesitate to prune and shape your calibrachoa as this will only help to promote new growth.
