Ornamental Features
Calitastic® Aubergine Star Calibrachoa is smothered in stunning trumpet-shaped flowers with lavender and purple flowers at the ends of the stems from late spring to early fall. Its small pointy leaves remain green in colour throughout the season. 
This plant will require occasional maintenance and upkeep. Trim off the flower heads after they fade and die to encourage more blooms late into the season. It is a good choice for attracting bees and hummingbirds to your yard, but is not particularly attractive to deer who tend to leave it alone in favor of tastier treats.
