Transform Your Garden with Petchoa 'Beautical' Mix

The Petchoa 'Beautical' Mix is a modern hybrid blending the best traits of Petunia and Calibrachoa, resulting in vigorous bedding plants with remarkable colour-changing blooms. Each plant produces a continuous display of flowers that subtly shift shades as they mature, creating an ever-evolving tapestry of colour in your beds, baskets, or containers.

• Botanical Background: Petchoa is an intergeneric hybrid, combining the resilience and large blooms of petunias with the weather resistance and prolific flowering of calibrachoas.
• Breathtaking Display: Expect masses of trumpet-shaped flowers in a mix of enchanting hues—perfect for adding drama to patios, window boxes, or mixed borders.
• Long-Lasting Colour: Flowering typically begins in late spring (May) and continues until the first frosts (October), ensuring months of vibrant garden impact.
