    No need to deadhead.
    Excellent for containers. I used mine as a covercrop in a large pot of Gloriosas.
    Trailing habit.

    Hi, I have fresh seed for Calibrachoa / Kablooms. I started some a week ago and they are peeking green already.
    Could Someone put my excess to use? I have 50/60 each of three colors. White, Pink, & Blue/purple.
    I would like to see these grown. No charge!!!
    I have 30 of each started, more than I need for my flower tree.
    Email me your addy I'll send them right out.
