The small petunia shaped flower is self-cleaning, so no deadheading is required!

Best used for mixed containers, window boxes and hanging baskets, Blue Moon Punch can be used successfully in raised beds if the soil is very well drained. The flowers can attract hummingbirds, so it is a great addition to the pollinator garden. Hailing from South America these Calibrachoa are heat tolerant and disease resistant.

Superbells® Blue Moon Punch Calibrachoa Care

Plant Superbells Blue Moon Punch in part to full sun (4-6+ hours daily) for best performance. Use an all-purpose, water-soluble fertilizer regularly. If you notice yellowing later in the season, a chelated iron or foliar spray of iron can help. Calibrachoa can use a trimming when planted, for a bushier plant.

Whether you are planting these Superbells in the landscape or in containers, make sure the soil has good drainage and is friable. Be sure to watch for snails, slugs, aphids, root rot and botrytis; possible pests of the Superbells.
