Description
The Calibrachoa 'Can-Can Rosies Blue' is one of the varieties from the superb 'Can-Can' series that stands out for its dense and slightly spreading habit, good drought resistance, and flowers that remain open even in poor light conditions. Its small 100% double, funnel-shaped, beautiful intense purple-blue-violet flowers, flood the plant from spring to the first frosts. This tidy variety requires very little maintenance. It is an essential plant for hanging baskets as well as borders. Provide it with fertile and well-drained soil.
Calibrachoa, sometimes called Million Bells, are frost-sensitive perennial plants often grown as annuals. Very similar to Petunias, their flowers are smaller, their growth habit is either shrubby or herbaceous with woody stems, their development is less significant, and they tolerate drought better. The hybrids that make up this group all belong to the solanaceae family (like tomatoes) and probably descend from an Argentinian species called Petunia integrifolia.
The 'Can-Can Rosies Blue' variety quickly forms an initially taller than wide mound, 40 to 50 cm (15.7 - 19.7 in) in height and 30 to 40 cm (11.8 - 15.7 in) in diameter. It then spreads through its flexible and densely branched stems covered with small lanceolate, evergreen, fuzzy, slightly sticky leaves of a medium green colour. Its unrelenting flowering takes place from June to the first frosts. Numerous small double trumpet-shaped flowers emerge from the axils of the leaves; they are 3 to 4 cm (1.2 - 1.6 in) wide and formed of a small corolla of crinkled petals arranged in the centre of a larger fusiform corolla. Unlike Petunias, these Calibrachoas do not need to be trimmed during the season.
The Calibrachoa 'Can-Can Rosies Blue' is ideal for hanging baskets, containers, or pots, but its drought tolerance and excellent flower performance in shade also allow it to be used in the ground, where it forms beautiful borders. It can be planted alone or accompanied by 2 or 3 other varieties with complementary colours (orange, yellow, white) in troughs, flower pots, or planters on terraces, balconies, or patios. It is also a good plant for conservatories. Its combination with Verbenas, Surfinia Petunias, and Nemesias is stunning. The choice is vast and allows for the imagination and tastes of every gardener, even inexperienced ones.
Note: Please be aware that our young plants in mini-plugs are professional products intended for experienced gardeners: upon receipt, transfer and store them under cover (veranda, greenhouse, cold frame...) at a temperature above 14C° (>57.2 F) for a few weeks before planting outdoors once the risk of frosts has definitively passed.

Planting and care
You can plant your Calibrachoa Can-Can Rosies Blue in the ground or in pots. If you wish to plant them in the ground, in compost-enriched soil, wait until the last heavy frosts have passed. In the meantime, you can pre-cultivate them in a warm and bright place to accelerate their growth. 'Can-Can' Calibrachoas will flower from June to September-October. Plant your Calibrachoas in a sunny or semi-shaded location protected from the wind. They need a light and humus-rich, but above all, well-drained soil. Do not over-water them at the beginning of the growing season as they are sensitive to excessive moisture. They tolerate drought well but will need regular watering during hot summer weather. Very floriferous and fast-growing, they are hungry plants. We recommend feeding them with a liquid fertiliser for Surfinias once or twice a week during the growing season. Although not essential, you can remove faded flowers and dry leaves as they appear to keep them looking good and extend the flowering period.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
