Slack your late-summer thirst with the refreshing vibrancy of Superbells® Tropical Sunrise. The prolific, petite, and petunia-like flowers stun with pink, red, and yellow colors, reminiscent of a sunset or tropical drink. No wonder the hummingbirds can’t stay away! The long-blooming plant will brighten up your sunny patio or garden all summer long, until hard frost. Wouldn’t it be lovely to watch the colors change in autumn while these stunners continue to bloom?
A “spiller” plant that is quite the thriller, Superbells® Tropical Sunrise will add a cascade of color to your container plantings. The trailing habit and continuous, brilliant bloom dazzles whether you use them to add color next to foliage plants, create a lively show with other bloomers, or use them on their own. These best sellers are long blooming, continuously blooming, and heat tolerant.
Superbells® Tropical Sunrise Calibrachoa Petunia Care
Superbells® Tropical Sunrise is best enjoyed in a raised garden bed with well-draining soil or a container. Calibrachoa do not like constantly wet soil. Do not over water, and allow for the soil to dry between watering. Regular, balanced fertilizing will keep them growing and blooming abundantly.
It’s not necessary, but you can give them a trim with a pair of scissors when you plant them to get fuller growth from the start. There’s no need to deadhead for continuous bloom, however they sometimes need a trim at the end of the season to look tidy.
Superbells® Tropical Sunrise Calibrachoa Spacing
Calibrachoa are trailing, cascading plants that don’t smother their neighbors. With this in mind, you should allow 8-10” of space between plants.

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.
