Go for the bold with this splashy calibrachoa hybrid. The purple trumpet-shaped flowers ringed in white are striking enough, but it’s the yellow centers that hypnotize you. Add to that the massive number of flowers, and an easy-going personality and you have a long-season standout for flower power. Luckily for busy gardeners, those flowers need no deadheading – it’s a self-cleaning powerhouse.

Holy Smokes has won multiple awards for its combination of continuous bloom, heat tolerance, and fall interest. Supporting pollinators, it is a beacon to hummingbirds, whose beaks fit those mini-petunia type flowers perfectly. The green foliage can trail as long as 24 inches. Reaching a foot high and two feet wide, it’s a low-maintenance container star as a mounded trailer for hanging baskets, raised beds, window boxes and patio planters. Holy Smokes will shine in full sun or part sun, with best bloom in full sunlight.

Superbells® Holy Smokes!® Calibrachoa Care

Did we mention how easy Holy Smokes is? Like other calibrachoas, it asks for average soil and moisture, with good drainage. Containers are best for calibrachoas, unless your landscape site has impeccable drainage. They do not relish being overly wet or consistently damp, so if your region has wet springs, wait to plant until sunny weather has settled in.

Use a balanced fertilizer (such as 24-12-17) at planting and at recommended intervals in containers. If leaves are yellowing despite fertilization, the pH range in the soil may have gotten too high or low, inhibiting the ability of the plant to absorb iron. This can be fixed by applying iron chelate as a foliar spray (which works faster) or in granules. If the plants become leggy, simply trim back at any time to encourage fuller branching. They won’t mind and will reward you with lush new foliage and flowers within a week.

Superbells® Holy Smokes!® Calibrachoa Spacing

Eight to 12 inches apart is an ideal spacing for Holy Smokes Calibrachoa, since they can spread 12-24 inches across. In hanging baskets, you can plant more closely, perhaps six inches. Choose containers with optimal drainage, and soil that is not overly heavy.

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.

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.

Guarantee and Warranty

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.
