Superbells® Pomegranate Punch Calibrachoa Care
Calibrachoa Superbells Pomegranate Punch do best if fertilized regularly with a water-soluble fertilizer. They are very picky about watering. If the soil is too moist, they get root rot and die. Let the soil on top of their container dry out between watering. Calibrachoa Superbells Pomegranate Punch prefers full sun but will grow in part sun. This plant requires super good soil drainage. If planting in a landscape, a raised bed is the best bet.
Calibrachoa Superbells Pomegranate Punch are both mounding and trailing, so work well in mixed containers as the spiller. It doesn’t survive the winter in most of the United States, so is often treated as an annual. However, if you bring the container or hanging basket in for the winter, it is possible to keep it alive until the spring, when it can go out again.
Superbells® Pomegranate Punch Calibrachoa Spacing
Calibrachoa Superbells Pomegranate Punch is considered short at 6-12 inches tall, but it will trail up to 24 inches long. Depending on the size of the container, it can spread 12-24 inches wide.

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.
