I LOVE these!
Maybe if I grow them again I will get the full range of 5 colors. But I am very happy with these.

Shawn, if I had known that they really would stay as short as the description says, I would have grown them in a Harvest, too.

I noticed they are out of them. Hope they come back soon. They are one of my very favorites so far, probably for the small size and the profusion of blooms.
Kind of like moss roses (portulaca) for the same reason. I want to grow them again, too.

Can't help posting another photo. These look like they have more flowers than leaves!

It looks like a line of beautiful flowering shrubs if you did not know they were in an AG.

Sher, are the flowers sticky like Petunias? Just wondering as I understand some stores do not classify the Calibrachoas separate, but instead call them a type of Petunia.

No, they are not sticky. I am glad!

Wow they're soo bushy and full of flowers! Sher have you tried other calibrachoa before? I am wondering if this variety is especially nice for the aerogarden or would other calibrachoa varieties work as well? |

belugaleuca, this is the only variety I have grown. It is called Million Bells.
There are other varieties, but this one was recommended especially for the Aerogarden by a former member. I know I am thrilled with how it is doing.
I got my seed from Park Seed and I don't think they have any Million Bells left.

The yellow flowers on the right died. I think they were too dense.
The rest are still beautiful.

They don't look much different, except maybe a bit more straggly. I may shear some of the sides to encourage new blooms.

This is the last photo of this plant that I will post. Through the magic of the camera, it looks good, but it is actually starting to die.
It's been a lovely project, but I am ready to move on to something else.
