Superbells Blue Moon Punch Calibrachoa (Calibrachoa 'Superbells Blue Moon Punch')
kal-ih-brah-KOE-ah 'Superbells Blue Moon Punch'

Annual (usually grown as an annual near you) Mounded, Trailing in the Solanaceae Family
Silvery lavender blooms with a deep purple eye cover this trailing Calibrachoa from late spring to frost. Part of the Proven Winners Superbells series, it's a reliable, low-maintenance spiller for pots and hanging baskets.
Calibrachoa 'Superbells Blue Moon Punch' is a Proven Winners selection in the Superbells series, grown for its silvery-lavender flowers centered with a deep purple eye. Plants form a compact, bushy-to-trailing mound 6-12in tall, spreading 12-24in (and trailing further in hanging baskets), and bloom continuously from late spring until the first hard frost with no deadheading required. In the Chicago area it is grown as a warm-season annual, since its true hardiness (USDA zone 9-11) does not survive winter here. No US plant patent could be confirmed for this specific color despite a real search effort; Proven Winners markets it only under its trademarked name, without a published patent number or breeder credit.

Pros

  • Continuous, no-deadhead bloom from spring to frost
  • Soft lavender-and-purple color pairs well with brighter companions
  • Trailing habit excels in hanging baskets and mixed containers
  • Attracts hummingbirds and pollinators

Cons

  • Dislikes constantly wet soil - needs good drainage
  • Not winter hardy in Chicago (zone 9-11) - grown as an annual
  • No published patent found - breeder credit for this color is unconfirmed
This plant is probably not winter-hardy outdoors where you live.

Field-Grown vs. Greenhouse-Grown Plants

Plants which are well-adapted to our local climate are most often field-grown (outside). Field-grown plants are generally cheaper and have the advantage of already somewhat acclimated to our cold winters, but that means they’re not artificially far along in the spring and tend to bloom at the normal time in our area.

Spring annuals and tender perennials are typically grown in Greenhouses so they can be ready and luxurious exactly when customers want them. Some perennials are also “forced” into early bloom in greenhouses. In May, there can be a very big difference between field-grown and greenhouse-grown plants of the same type. The latter typically look good right away (so they’re a great choice where that’s important), but we typically pay a premium for it.

We order from a rotating cast of the best nurseries in the Great Lakes region. It looks like we've offered this plant in the past, but the nurseries we're working with this week don't appear to have it in stock at the moment.

Our goal is to bring as many plants together under "one roof" as possible, so we'll try hard to make it available again in the future!
