VAUGHN'S VIEW
ornamental value for the Calitastic,
Caliplosion, Chameleon and Candy
Shop series. The transitional flower
colors provide the grower with
diverse color mixes for creating
exciting designer combinations
in baskets or mixed containers.
'Candy Shop Milky Pink' is one of 10
varieties in the series, which includes
four new varieties for 2022. This
current variety demonstrated the
unique brushwork flower pattern,
polychromatic colors, semi-trailing
habit, and prolific flowering we
expect from this series. There were
many Candy Shop varieties in the
summer trials, and Milky Pink,
pictured here in the Plantpeddler
trial, was one of my favorites
because of its bright pink petals,
white stripes, yellow throat and its
prolific flower canopy.
10. 'EYECONIC CHERRY
BLOSSOM'
Danziger
Danziger offers five series of
calibrachoa, and the Eyeconics offer
a series with a stunning multicolored
pattern and a distinctive eye.
'Eyeconic Purple' was introduced
initially, followed by Compact Sunset
and three varieties for 2022: Pink,
Peach and Cherry Blossom, which
I have highlighted in the article.

Cherry Blossom was in multiple trials
and manifested vibrant and striking
flower color at the Plantpeddler
trial where the accompanying photo
was taken. It was a standout with
its yellow throat, cherry eye center
and light pink blush petals. The
series has great application in mixed
baskets and combinations. 'Eyeconic
Apricot' will be introduced for 2023.
11. 'MINIFAMOUS UNO
DOUBLE WHITE+PINK WHIRL'
Selecta One
The Uno series offers a diverse
selection of core colors, doubles and
stars. This is a medium to compact

series with applicability in quarts,
combinations and baskets. I selected
this variety based on its large double
flowers, contrasting white petals
with pink centers, and cascading
habit. The reflective quality of white
enhances the pink fleck and creates
a classic color combination. The
Uno and the more vigorous Neo
series offer the largest selection of
double calibrachoas in the industry.
I highlighted the uniqueness
and performance of Uno Double
PinkTastic, a FleuroStar winner,
when it was introduced. Selecta
One considers Double White+Pink
Whirl the sister to this variety with
similar flower size, vigor, habit
and whirl pattern. There are 10
diverse double varieties in the
Uno series. The photo is from the
Plantpeddler trial in early August.

12. 'CHAMELEON ATOMIC
ORANGE'
Westhoff
This article would be
incomplete without mention
of the Chameleon series that
introduced the horticultural world
to calibrachoas with transitional
multicolored petals. This series
offers over 18 varieties and
three mixes for 2022. The range
of colors is extraordinary and
offers the grower and consumer a
creative color palette for quarts,
mixed containers and baskets.
When I visit garden centers in the
spring season I am impressed
with the creative combinations
that growers offer that
incorporate many of the varieties
in this series.
The Chameleon series has
been well represented in
trials since its introduction to
demonstrate the color range,
floriferousness and summer
performance. I chose Atomic
Orange to highlight because
of its vibrancy, excitement and
color association with summer
heat. The flowers with orange
shades and yellow centers were
striking, manifested a prolific
flower canopy, and demonstrated
excellent heat tolerance. The
accompanying photograph was
from the Plantpeddler trial in
early August.
