Details

Calibrachoa hybrida 'Cha-Cha Red Kiss' provides a profusion of beautiful, large black centers surrounded by deep velvet red, the small petunia-like flowers will stop you in your tracks. Blooms are mounded and trailing on these low-maintenance plants. Calibrachoa is best in containers including hanging baskets where it can display its fabulous trailing habit. Keeping plants too wet can lead to root rot diseases. Plant in a well-draining soil and allow the top of the soil to dry before watering again. Self-cleaning, no deadheading necessary.

Growing Tips

If you have problems with budworms (blooms and buds getting chewed away) we recommend Captain Jack's Deadbug Brew. It's safe enough to be used for organic growing, and if used once a week starting mid-June it should take care of these dastardly pests that have invaded most of the Midwest. We carry this fantastic product at our Kaw Valley Garden Centers in ready-to-use spray bottles.
