Calibrachoa - Superbells ® Blue
The Calibrachoa Superbells ® Blue, 'Calibrachoa hybrids', is a fantastic annual hybrid from Proven Winners. Calibrachoa is very similar to a minature Petunia. This vigorous fast growing plant produces hundreds of vividly colored blue flowers that bloom from spring until first frost. Calibrachoa Superbells are easy to grow. Place them in full sun, shade will severely limit the number of flowers. Superbells can be grown in patio pots, window boxes and in beds. Calibrachoa are popular for hanging baskets because of their cascading habit. Superbells are self cleaning, you do not have to pinch off spent flowers. Superbells Calibrachoa is more heat resistant than most of the Calibrachoas. It can take the heat of hot southern summers making it a good replacement for petunias, and they can be perennial in zones 7 and warmer. You can expect hummingbirds to visit your garden when you plant Calibrachoa because they love the large trumpet shaped flowers and it’s good nectar source. For zones 9-11, this plant can also be a perennial. ... details
Hot Peppers - Kung Pao The fruits are very long, to 6-9", and dark red in color, with thin walls. KungPao peppers plants are fast-growing and vigorous. The high yielding plant bears many fast drying peppers with a very hot yet inviting flavor. Transplant outside in the spring 3 to 4 weeks after last frost date. Note: To get a jump on the season transplant outside, use a walls-of-water or some black plastic to maintain and increase temperatures. Plant in average garden soil with sufficient organic matter. Peppers use quite a bit of water but prefer to be watered deeply and not too often. Harvest when peppers begin to turn green to red. Use gloves and do not touch any other part of the body after harvesting. Wash your hands immediately. |
