Colibri™ Spark Purple Calibrachoa hybrida

Colibri™ Spark Purple is a compact, early-flowering Calibrachoa selection in Danziger’s [Colibri series](https://www.danzigeronline.com/catalog/annuals/colibri-spark-purple-2/). The breeder lists it at 10–12 inches tall and wide and recommends it for pots, hanging baskets, ground cover, and combinations. ## Placement and flowering Danziger describes Spark Purple as early flowering with a compact habit, suitable for small pots and tidy baskets. Its listed mature size fits the front of a seasonal bed or a container where the stems can spread. The product page also notes medium-sized flowers and suitability for mixed plantings. ## Growing conditions For Calibrachoa generally, [NC State Extension](https://plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/calibrachoa-x-hybrida/) recommends full sun and moist, organically rich, well-drained soil. It describes the genus as tender and usually grown as an annual where winters are cold; those are general Calibrachoa growing conditions. ## Maintenance Check pots and baskets regularly because container mix dries faster than garden soil. Water to keep the medium moist while allowing excess water to drain, and feed regularly during the blooming season. NC State notes that routine deadheading is not needed to encourage flowering.
