Park Seed Caliburst Yellow Petchoa Seeds

Caliburst Yellow Petchoa is a tender perennial (Zones 9-11), often grown as an annual, that blooms a full 3 seasons, from early spring through autumn. Free and continuously flowering, this petchoa creates a canopy of color with large, showy, vibrant yellow blooms that are prettily ruffled and long lasting.

The first petchoa from seed, Caliburst Petchoa is a Petunia sp. x Calibrachoa sp. cross. Petchoa is a hybrid that combines the best characteristics of two popular species: petunias and calibrachoa. Petunia contributes large flower size, excellent vigor, weather resilience, strong roots, pH tolerance, and ease of growth. Calibrachoa provides vibrant flower color and lush, non-sticky foliage, which not only keeps fingers clean but also allows spent blooms to fall cleanly from the plant. But petchoa has better disease resistance and rain, heat, and cold tolerance than both its parents.

Caliburst Yellow Petchoa grows vigorously and has a mounded, spreading but controlled habit. It's perfect in containers, window boxes, and hanging baskets but makes great edging or ground cover in beds and borders.

Easy to grow and low maintenance, petchoa grows best in sunny to partly sunny locations with fertile, moist, well-drained soil. Deer resistant.

This seed comes as a pellet. Pelleted seeds are small seeds that have been clay-coated to make them larger and more uniform in size and shape, making them easier to handle when planting.
