Catalina Grape-o-licious Torenia is a long-blooming annual that does great in shade or sun. It gets up to 12 inches tall and wide. It is loaded with white, trumpet-shaped flowers with purple centers and clean green leaves in spring and summer.
Hummingbirds regularly visit torenia but deer do not. Grape-o-licious Torenia joins four other colors in the Catalina family. Torenia is heat tolerant. With its mounding form, it fills the role of filler in a container with maybe just a graceful spill over the edge. It also does well in the ground.
Catalina® Grape-o-Licious Wishbone Flower Care
Grow torenia in full sun to shade. Sometimes the leaves turn dark green in sunnier locations. A very low maintenance plant, no deadheading (snipping off dead flowers) is necessary.
It’s not too picky on soil requirements. Although heat tolerant, it does best when watered during dry spells. Fertilize as an annual in a pot or in the ground, according to label directions.
Catalina® Grape-o-Licious Wishbone Flower Spacing
Plant three in a 10- or 12-inch wide hanging basket or other container, adding something a bit taller in the center, such as a Lanai verbena for a sunny location or an impatiens in shade. In the ground, plant about 8 inches apart.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
