Sue, isn't this the most awesome plant? Your pic is an excellent view of this calibrachoa. I couldn't resist it when I saw it at the nursery and planted it with another fabulous petunia and ornamental kale.

Ohhh, I love your combo, especially with that kale! That one was Zuzu's, I bought the one with more coral called Coralberry Punch.

I have a love/hate relationship with DG:lol: We get some calibrochoa here later in the year but never the cool new varieties like you get in California or other warmer zones. Pardon my drool--you get these gorgeous plants and bougainvillea:LOL:

Sue, Coralberry Punch is gorgeous too. All of them are! Ck these out. I'm drooling over Miss Lilac and Safron. I have seen Safron locally but not CP or MS. I do find that calibrachoas do a little better in my hot climate than reg. petunias but their price also reflects it, so cost keeps me from buying every single one. Plus, nice to mix/match w/ other stuff.

DMAC, don't be too jealous. By the time they arrive in your area, mine will be dead from the heat. Then I'll be the one drooling over yours, lol

There are so many new fabulous ones! Here is Cherry Star.
I can't believe how much they are charging on that site Nery! I get them wholesale, you would die if you knew how cheap the 4" pots are!!

You're right vossner--I've been away from the southwest too long:lol: Forgot about the July/August heat (I'm formerly of Odessa TX and Alamogordo NM)-- The 3 inch pots here sell for about $5 apiece at the frou-frou nursery and about $2.50-$3 at the Farmer's Market plant vendors.

Those are gorgeous!!
