Calibrachoa Cabaret® Neon Rose

Order WebTrack
Medium Mounded
  • Cabaret carries the best-performing lineup of solid colors and exciting bicolors with early flowering!
  • Most varieties flower with a 10.5-hour day length, and stay open and in flower under low light conditions – a big plus at retail.
  • All new genetics flower early when produced for target production weeks prior to Week 5 in the South and Week 14 in the North.
  • Works well in 4.5 to 6-in. (11 to 15-cm) pots up to large baskets.
Brighter color and earlier to flower than the current Rose, with early flowering, so it is great to target production for week 14 or earlier. Perfect for tight basket production.
