With all the bells and whistles, this new calibrachoa is dressed to party. Showers of flowers – double ones, naturally - clad in a rich blue-toned pink trimmed in crisp white with a yellow eye. From the Superbells line, it needs no deadheading. The flowers resemble miniature petunias, but without the stickiness or constant trimming. Get ready to be swept away on the easy abundance of this great container plant.
This award-winning calibrachoa hybrid is a lower mounded trailer (averaging six- ten inches high) who keeps the party going all the way until frost. Love Swept is ideal for all sorts of containers, and superb for focal points in hanging baskets or pots. Like other calibrachoas, Love Swept can excel in the ground if given perfect drainage. Raised beds would be a great option for growing in the garden. Proven Winners, the breeder, highlights Love Swept in combinations with blue scaevola, single white calibrachoa, and trailing verbenas.
Superbells® Doublette Love Swept Calibrachoa Care
Calibrachoas are low-maintenance, asking only for full- to part-sun, regular fertilizer, and a moderate pH level. If your plants begin looking weak, or the foliage is yellowing, make sure you are using a well-balanced fertilizer. Proven Winners recommends one with an N-P-K ratio close to 24-12-17). If you have already been fertilizing, pH could be the issue - either too high or too low. This can be remedied with applying iron chelate in a foliar spray which should bring the foliage back to green.
If the plant is becoming lanky, they take pruning very well at any time. You can use a scissor or small clippers or shears. It will bounce back and begin producing flowers and beautiful bushy growth in a few days.
Superbells® Doublette Love Swept Calibrachoa Spacing
8 to 12 inches is an ideal spacing for this calibrachoa. Love Swept can spread 12-24 inches and trail up to 16.

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.
