Turn baskets and containers into a burst of colour with this 'Cha Cha' Quickmixer which typically has a colour mix of blue, yellow nd hot rose flowers. From early early spring (September) through late Autumn (May) in Cape Town you can expect beautiful blooms that spill from their baskets and containers. It's mounded, trailing growth creates a full and colourful display.
Give 'Cha Cha' a sunny to lightly semi-shaded spot in a quality, free draining potting mix. Water regularly while establishing, then water when the surface of the mix begins to dry, taking extra care with baskets during Cape Town's hot, dry summer. Feed during the active growing and flowering period to encourage a lush display. No routine deadheading is needed, although an ocassional light trim can tidy up overly long growth.
The 'Cha Cha' range was bred for a more vigorous habit than many traditional Calibrachoa series. It's fuller growth and large blooms make it particularly well suited to creating impressive displays in larger hanging baskets and containers.
