Superbells Blue Calibrachoa Care

Water calibrachoa when the top inch or two of the soil is dry. Use high quality potting mix, which is specially formulated to aid drainage, which is critical to success with this plant. If it starts to look lanky, take snips and cut it back to strong growth. Calibrachoa tends to do better with an acid-type fertilizer. Apply according to the label’s directions.

Grow calibrachoa in full (6+ hours) to part sun. Be sure not to over water. Superbell Blue Calibrachoa is not recommended as a houseplant. Snip a few strands to drape over the edges of a vase of flowers for indoor enjoyment.

Superbells Blue Calibrachoa Spacing

In a 10- or 12-inch hanging basket, plant two or three, which will quickly fill the space. Or mix it with other annuals, where it can wind around companion plants and softens the edges of pots.
