Its medium texture blends into the garden, but can always be balanced by a couple of finer or coarser plants for an effective composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"NetPS-PlantLAPara2\"\u003eThis plant will require occasional maintenance and upkeep. Trim off the flower heads after they fade and die to encourage more blooms late into the season. It is a good choice for attracting hummingbirds to your yard, but is not particularly attractive to deer who tend to leave it alone in favor of tastier treats. It has no significant negative characteristics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"NetPS-PlantLAPara3\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuperCal® Blue Petchoa is recommended for the following landscape applications;\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul id=\"NetPS-LAPara3-ap\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMass Planting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBorder Edging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeneral Garden Use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContainer Planting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHanging Baskets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"NetPS-PlantDescHeader\" id=\"NetPS-PlantPGHeader\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting \u0026amp; Growing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"NetPS-PlantPGPara1\"\u003eSuperCal® Blue Petchoa will grow to be about 12 inches tall at maturity, with a spread of 18 inches. When grown in masses or used as a bedding plant, individual plants should be spaced approximately 15 inches apart. Its foliage tends to remain dense right to the ground, not requiring facer plants in front. This fast-growing annual will normally live for one full growing season, needing replacement the following year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"NetPS-PlantPGPara2\"\u003eThis plant should only be grown in full sunlight. It does best in average to evenly moist conditions, but will not tolerate standing water. It is not particular as to soil type or pH. It is highly tolerant of urban pollution and will even thrive in inner city environments. This particular variety is an interspecific hybrid. It can be propagated by cuttings; however, as a cultivated variety, be aware that it may be subject to certain restrictions or prohibitions on propagation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"NetPS-PlantPGPara3\"\u003eSuperCal® Blue Petchoa is a fine choice for the garden, but it is also a good selection for planting in outdoor containers and hanging baskets. Because of its trailing habit of growth, it is ideally suited for use as a 'spiller' in the 'spiller-thriller-filler' container combination; plant it near the edges where it can spill gracefully over the pot. Note that when growing plants in outdoor containers and baskets, they may require more frequent waterings than they would in the yard or garden.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"27 JF 100 WK 12","offers":[{"title":"4.5\" Pot","offer_id":38157203308724,"sku":null,"price":8.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0205\/4654\/products\/Petchoa-SuperCalBlue.jpg?v=1613917522","url":"https:\/\/www.calgaryplants.com\/products\/petchoa-supercal-blue","provider":"Calgary Plants","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
