Description
Mixmasters A Grape Fit is an innovative concept bringing together three annual plants, a lavender blue Sun Spun Lavender Star petunia, an intense purple Aztec Violet verbena, and a hot pink Calibrachoa Cabaret Hot Pink, in a beautiful harmony of vine colours. Growing together in balance, they all bloom abundantly from spring until the first frost. Each gardener can repeat the pattern as desired, in a large container, to create a lush and dense bouquet where the shades blend in a highly organised mosaic. With low water requirements, resistant to rain and almost maintenance-free, this collection of annuals is essential in hanging baskets or planters. Give it sun and fertile soil that is neutral to acidic, and well-drained.
Mixmasters A Grape Fit is an original cultivation technique that consists of sowing or propagating three distinct plants in the same cell. These are chosen for their complementary or matching colours, but also for the uniformity of their habit and growth. The A Grape Fit selection grows in a dense mound, 40 cm (16in) tall and 30 cm (12in) wide. Dark green stems and foliage beautifully highlight the flowering of this tireless trio, which lasts from May until the first frost.
Mixmasters A Grape Fit is an ideally balanced composition, in perfect taste, created for the ornamentation of hanging baskets, planters, or flowerpots. It can be planted alone or grouped in several plugs in troughs, flower boxes, or balcony planters on the terrace, balcony, or patio. An association with foliage plants, such as Silver Falls Dichondra, purple-leaved Ipomoea, Plectranthus, or Helichrysum petiolatum silver, is remarkable. The choice is vast and allows for the imagination and tastes of every gardener, even inexperienced ones.
Note: Please be aware that our young plug plants are professional products reserved for experienced gardeners: upon receipt, transplant and store them in sheltered areas (veranda, greenhouse, cold frame etc.) at a temperature above 14°C (57.2°F) for a few weeks before being installed outside once the risk of frost has definitively passed.

Planting and care
Plant your Mixmasters A Grape Fit in a pot. While waiting for the last frosts to pass, you can pre-cultivate them in a warm and bright place to accelerate their growth. They will flower from May-June to October. Plant them in a sunny location sheltered from the wind. They need a light and humus-rich soil, free of limestone, but above all well-draining, and they are sensitive to stagnant water. Do not water them too much at the beginning of vegetation as they are sensitive to excess moisture. They tolerate drought well, but will need regular watering during hot summer weather. Very floriferous and fast-growing, they are hungry. We recommend feeding them with a liquid fertiliser for surfinias once or twice a week during the growth period. Although not obligatory, you can remove faded flowers and dry leaves as they appear to keep them looking beautiful and extend the flowering period.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
