Calibrachoa Can Can Black Cherry| Tray of 84 Large Plug Plants

Calibrachoa Black Cherry produces dark, black velvety, trumpet shaped flowers merging into a central golden yellow eye. Can Can is more vigorous than the Caberet variety of Calibrachoa but offers the same great features of free flowering, well branched plants with season long flowering even under wet, low light conditions. Ideal for trailing over the side of hanging baskets and window boxes, dead-head regularly to maintain flower power.

Size guide - Tray of 84 Large Plug Plants 

Pot Ready, Large, Healthy plants individually rooted in large plugs of compost. Ideal for planting into baskets, containers or small areas in the garden. Best results achieved if grown on for a short while in 9cm/10cm pots prior to planting out if planting straight into garden borders. Tender varieties will need protecting from frost. Compost volume around 4-5cm deep x 3-4cm square. Foliage height 5cm-12cm (depending on variety). Full growing instructions are provided.

Calibrachoa Specific Advice

Calibrachoas do not need deadheading as the plants are considered to be self-cleaning, meaning that the faded flowers readily drop following bloom. To stop Calibrachoa from becoming leggy, you can pinch it back regularly to encourage a more compact growth habit.

General Growing Advice

Using a good quality multi-purpose compost, pot up your plugs into 10cm pots or use the 6 or 9  Pack Cell Plant Trays. Once your Calibrachoa plug plants have been potted on and labelled, water them in well and grow on for 5-6 weeks.

If preferred you can pot on the plugs into hanging baskets, flower bags or pots. Add a slow release plant food like Miracle-Gro Slow Release All Purpose Plant Food  to your compost which will give extra nutrients for strong and healthy plant growth.

Keep plants frost free until mid/late May and then harden off before being placed in their final positions when the risk of frost has passed in your area.
