We spoke with Four Star Director of Growing Operations Dennis Crum about growing the new Superbells® variety — Frostfire. This unusual but beautiful plant made its debut this season and he predicts it will be a great addition to a growers' mix because of its ease of growing and attractive looks.
“Frostfire finishes nice in a Grande™ container from a 42 liner and has shown moderate vigor, good shape and form, thick and full growth, and heavy flower coverage,” Crum explains. “It has smaller leaves but grows well.”
As with most Calibrachoa, Frostfire does best when it can avoid wet, cool, low light conditions. Overall, it's a great plant to grow, he says. “I haven't seen any production problems with it, and haven't heard of any problems either.”
