- Species and varieties: Calibrachoa, often referred to as 'Million Bells,' is a genus of flowering plants in the Solanaceae family. It is closely related to the petunia and is known for its small, petunia-like flowers. Varieties include 'Superbells,' 'MiniFamous,' and 'Cabaret.'
- Hybrid or heirloom: Calibrachoa seeds are typically hybrid varieties, bred for their vibrant colors, compact growth, and prolific blooming. Hybrid seeds are created by cross-pollinating two different parent plants to produce offspring with desirable traits.
- Pruning and training: Regular deadheading (removal of spent flowers) is not necessary for Calibrachoa, as it is self-cleaning. However, occasional pruning can help maintain a compact shape and encourage more blooms. Pinching back the stems can promote bushier growth.
- Fertilization needs: Calibrachoa benefits from regular fertilization. Use a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every two weeks during the growing season. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of flowers.
- Hardiness zones: Calibrachoa is suitable for USDA hardiness zones 9-11. In cooler climates, it is often grown as an annual.
- Climate requirements: Calibrachoa thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-drained soil. It requires a warm climate with temperatures ranging from 55°F to 75°F (13°C to 24°C). It is sensitive to frost and should be planted after the last frost date in spring.
