Blue Moon™ Torenia hybrida

Blue Moon™ is a semi-trailing Torenia hybrida in Danziger’s MOON™ series, with a compact shape suited to hanging baskets. The breeder lists this exact selection at 6–8 inches tall and 10–14 inches wide ([Blue Moon product details](https://www.danzigeronline.com/catalog/annuals/blue-moon/)). ## Placement Let the stems spill over the edge of a basket or container, or use the plant near the front of a mixed planting. Danziger describes the MOON series as suited to full shade through partial sun and to combinations as well as hanging baskets ([2026 North American catalog](https://files.danzigeronline.com/pdf/Annuals_NA_26.pdf)). This makes Blue Moon a useful flowering option where stronger afternoon sun is limited. ## Seasonal interest The breeder’s catalog describes the series as early to flower and capable of flowering year-round in moderate climates. In gardens with colder winters, use it as a warm-season annual and expect the timing to follow local temperatures and daylight. The cultivar’s low, semi-trailing outline gives flowers room to show above the container edge. ## Maintenance Grow in a fertile, well-drained container mix and water consistently, checking baskets more often in warm or windy weather. Trim long stems if they extend beyond the desired outline; leave enough growth to retain the cascading form.
