A captivating blend of Calibrachoa and Petunia, this exquisite bedding plant reveals mesmerising trumpet-shaped petals in a rich red hue, gracefully converging towards a deeper central eye. Distinctive for its mildew resistance, outstanding weather resilience, and non-sticky foliage, this hybrid stands out elegantly whether adorning hanging baskets, containers, or window boxes. From the early days of summer until the onset of the first frosts, 'BeautiCal Bordeaux' promises a continual burst of vibrancy, embodying resilience and allure even in the face of unpredictable summer conditions.
Pot up and grow on in a well-lit and ventilated frost free environment (such as a greenhouse, coldframe or conservatory). Plant out after all risk of frost has passed. Pinch out the growing tips to encourage bushier growth, and feed at regular intervals with a high-potash fertiliser throughout summer.
