Petchoa SuperCal Premium is a unique hybrid plant that combines the best traits of petunias and calibrachoas, offering vibrant, weather-resistant flowers in a range of bold colors. This plant is known for its exceptional durability, as it can withstand heat, rain, and cooler temperatures without losing its lush blooms. An interesting characteristic of the SuperCal Premium is its self-cleaning nature, meaning it requires little to no deadheading, making it a low-maintenance choice for gardeners.
In southern Louisiana, SuperCal Premium typically grows to a height of 10 to 14 inches with a spread of 18 to 24 inches, forming a full, trailing mound. It thrives in full sun, needing at least 6 hours of direct sunlight for optimal flowering. While it is heat-tolerant, it is not frost-tolerant and should be treated as an annual in USDA zones 9-11. SuperCal Premium requires regular watering, especially in hot weather, but prefers well-drained soil. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot, and allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings.
