Frequently Asked Questions
Find helpful answers about Calibrachoa seed propagation, hanging basket care, and flowering performance.
Can Calibrachoa be grown from seeds, or does it need cuttings?
Some Calibrachoa varieties are available as seeds, while many named commercial cultivars are propagated by cuttings to preserve their characteristics. Seed-grown plants may differ from the parent cultivar, particularly when the variety is a hybrid. Before sowing, check that the product contains genuine, viable Calibrachoa seeds and follow the supplier's germination instructions.
Why is my Calibrachoa growing leaves but producing few flowers?
Limited flowering can result from insufficient light, excessive nitrogen fertilizer, unsuitable temperatures, or stress caused by irregular watering. Provide bright light appropriate to your climate, use fertilizer according to its label, and maintain suitable soil moisture without waterlogging. Flowering performance also depends on the cultivar and the maturity of the plant.
How do you keep Calibrachoa healthy in hanging baskets?
Use a hanging basket with drainage holes and a lightweight, well-drained potting mix. Place it where the plant receives bright light, while protecting it from excessive heat when necessary. Check moisture regularly because hanging baskets can dry out faster than garden beds. Water thoroughly when needed and allow excess water to drain freely.
