• Annual geraniums and tobacco relatives like petunias, calibrachoas and nicotianas suffer most, but other flowers including osteospermums, mallows and chrysanthemums may also be attacked.
• The most frequently detected virus of calibrachoas has been characterized recently, named calibrachoa mottle virus (CbMV) and has been tentatively assigned to the genus Carmovirus.
• Closely related to petunias, calibrachoas are 3- to 9-inch-tall plants with trailing stems and a mounding habit.
• Also, the 'Superbells' tend to be more vigorous than 'Million Bells' and other calibrachoa varieties.
• All calibrachoas have several shortcomings in differing degrees, depending on variety—they are generally short lived, providing a bold burst of color at the start of the season, but dwindling as the soil pH changes from acid to alkaline from fertilizing.
