‘Calitastic Cappuccino’ unfurls a sea of exquisite dessert-inspired blooms, blanketing spaces in warm hues and carefree colour. This early large-flowered variety makes itself at home in pots or sprawling as handsome, mounding ground cover with slender buds opening flared trumpets of striped creamy orange and milky white. This cultivar is self-cleaning so does not require regular deadheading making for a low maintenance, high impact seasonal bedding plant.
Pot up and grow on under glass until all risk of frost has passed and they can then either be planted outside into a well-prepared bed, or used to fill decorative pots and hanging baskets for the patio. Pinching out the growing tips will encourage them to become bushier, and feeding with a high-potash fertiliser at regular intervals throughout the summer will promote even more flowers to form.
