Care Tips The Triobells is a colourful, abundantly flowering and easy to maintain plant which is suitable for your balcony, the patio or in plantborders. The Triobells is weatherproof and gives lots of flowers until the end of autumn. Water the Triobells two or three times a week and when sunny and warm every second day. The soil should be humid. When planted in a bigger pot watering one or two times a week should be sufficient. For repotting you have to use a light permeabel soil in which water can drain easily. Too much water should be able to escape. At the delivery we supply the soil with a long working fertilizer. The soil contains 'Osmocote'. This is an easy releasing fertilizer which gives the plant the first few months a dosed part of the essential needed plantfood. Next to the 'Osmocote' it is recommended to give the plant once every two weeks some extra fertilizer. A standard liquid plant fertilizer should be adequate. Further maintenance isn't needed. The dead flowers will dry out and fall off by themselves. |

Calibrachoa (mini-petunia) is the botanical name of a genus in the nightshade family (Solanaceae). The flowers are quite simular to those of the Petunia, with whom the Calibrachoa are closely related. However on further examination it has been found that there are major differences in chromosomes, corresponding to external differences and fertilization factors that distinguished the two genera. Calibrachoa is named after Antonio de la Cal y Bracho, a 19th-century Mexican botanist and pharmacologist. Other wellknown crops out of the nightshade family are tomato, paprika, eggplant, potato and tobacco. |
