About this Plant

Chili Pepper Lia Calibrachoa (Calibrachoa hybrida Lia Chili Pepper) is a high-performance tender perennial that brings an explosion of spicy, saturated color to the garden. Part of the renowned Lia Series, this variety is celebrated for its medium vigor and controlled, tidy habit. This series is specifically selected for its larger-than-average flowers, providing a much bolder visual impact than standard "Million Bells" varieties.

This prolific bloomer produces an abundance of velvety, deep red petunia-like flowers from spring through fall. Its semi-trailing or cascading growth habit makes it the ultimate choice for "spiller" roles in hanging baskets, window boxes, and premium patio containers. Because it is naturally self-cleaning, 'Chili Pepper' remains neat and professional-looking all season long without the need for constant deadheading. You will receive a healthy 4" plant, ready to be transplanted into your favorite sunny spot.

Why you’ll love it:

  • Bold Visual Impact: Features extra-large, striking red blooms that are significantly bigger than other Calibrachoa varieties.
  • Self-Cleaning: No deadheading is required to maintain its prolific bloom cycle, keeping the plant tidy with zero effort.
  • Pollinator Magnet: Highly attractive to butterflies and hummingbirds, bringing vibrant life to your porch or patio.
  • Weather Resilient: Stands up well to heat, wind, and rain, maintaining its intense color even in the peak of summer.
  • Controlled Growth: The perfect balance of vigor and restraint, ensuring it won't overwhelm other plants in mixed combinations.

This 4" healthy live plant thrives in full sun and prefers moderate watering in moist, well-drained soil. To keep it looking its best, avoid overwatering and ensure the container has excellent drainage. Its versatile habit also allows it to be used as a colorful, small-scale groundcover in garden beds or as a vibrant filler in mixed floral arrangements. Chili Pepper Lia Calibrachoa is the perfect choice for the gardener who demands maximum floral power and professional-grade performance in a convenient 4" size.
