Velvety flowers with rich, saturated tones bloom spring through fall, making the Decadent Container Garden a wonderful choice for areas in need of bright color. Petunias and Calibrachoas are continuous blooming plants, so you can expect these annuals to bloom all season long with some simple care. 

The flowers are trumpet-shaped and feature dark eyes for extra drama. The beautiful blooms are offset by green foliage. These plants are drought and heat tolerant, so they will continue to perform despite the summer heat. Petunias and Calibrachoas attract pollinators, so in addition to the beautiful blooms, you can enjoy watching the hummingbirds and butterflies that will visit the plants.

Decadent Container Garden Combo Care

These plants can be grown together in a 10-inch container or used to fill in other containers. The plants have similar care needs and require 4 to 6 hours of sunlight. Plan to water a few times a week, depending on the weather. Feel the soil and water when the top couple of inches is dry to the touch. Calibrachoas, in particular, like to dry out, so do not water until the soil is dry.

Soil should be rich, slightly acidic, and promote drainage. Feed these plants every 2 to 4 weeks using balanced, water-soluble fertilizer. Deadhead the plants to encourage branching and more abundant flowering.

Decadent Container Garden Combo Ideas

Place these plants together in one container for a lively display. These plants have similar growth habits, and the flower colors play off of one another, so they make a lovely trio. The stems naturally spill over the edge of containers, making these beauties a great fit for hanging baskets or window boxes. Plant the Petunias directly in the ground as part of a landscape or mass planting, but keep up with pruning to maintain a more bushy look.
