Abstract Lemon Cherry Calibrachoa

Abstract Lemon Cherry Calibrachoa (Calibrachoa hybrida Lia Abstract Lemon Cherry) is a high-fashion addition to the sunny garden, offering a truly unique "splatter-paint" aesthetic. Part of the high-performance Lia series, this variety features large, vibrant yellow blooms accented with bold, irregular splashes of cherry red, ensuring that every single flower is a one-of-a-kind work of art.

As a sophisticated member of the Calibrachoa genus, the Lia series is specifically bred for its controlled, medium vigor and exceptionally large flower size. Unlike older varieties that can look sparse, 'Abstract Lemon Cherry' maintains a lush, semi-trailing habit that is perfectly suited for window boxes, decorative patio pots, and hanging baskets. From spring all the way through fall, it produces a relentless abundance of nectar-rich, petunia-like flowers that act as a primary destination for hummingbirds and butterflies. Its sturdy habit and disease resistance make it a reliable choice for gardeners who want high-end color without the high-maintenance demands.

Why you’ll love it:

• Stunning "Abstract" Pattern: A beautiful bi-color mix of sunny yellow and cherry red with unique, artistic markings.
• Lia Series Performance: Bred for larger flowers and a more controlled, tidy habit than standard Million Bells.
• Hummingbird Favorite: The prolific, tubular blooms are irresistible to hummingbirds and beneficial pollinators.
• Continuous Season-Long Color: Engineered to bloom reliably from early spring until the first frost of autumn.
• Versatile Semi-Trailing Habit: Stays bushy and upright (12–14 inches) while gracefully spilling over the edges of containers.

This 4-inch healthy live plant thrives in full sun and prefers well-drained soil. To keep it blooming at its peak, provide moderate water and occasional feeding, but be sure to avoid overwatering to keep the roots healthy. Whether used as a vibrant "filler" in mixed arrangements or as a standalone showstopper, Abstract Lemon Cherry provides a cheerful, designer look to any sun-drenched space. Hardy in USDA Zone 9; enjoyed as a premium annual in cooler climates.
