Growing calibrachoa in a container

Calibrachoa really shines as the "spiller" element in a decorative container. Combine it with a tall, showy "thriller" plant and a variety of fillers with beautiful foliage to create a stunning display. With so many varieties, it's easy to find a calibrachoa type no matter what large plant you choose for your container. Suggested "thrillers" include fountain grass, calla lilies, and elephant ear.

The pretty plants also provide a lot of flower power, so you might choose a filler with interesting foliage instead. Suggested fillers include coleus, caladium, and heuchera.
