Growing & Care Tips

Coral Creeper 'Pink Star' dazzles with its trailing pink flowers accented by white starry centers. Its long bloom time and versatility make it perfect for containers and hanging baskets.

How to Grow

Grow in full sun for best results. Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Pinch back tips to encourage bushy growth. Deadhead spent blooms to prolong flowering. Bring containers indoors before frost.

Care Tips

Water when the top few inches of soil become dry. Feed every 2-3 weeks during the growing season with a balanced liquid fertilizer. Prune lightly in early spring to invigorate growth.

Uses

Coral Creeper 'Pink Star' shines trailing from hanging baskets, window boxes, and container gardens. It also adds long-lasting color to garden beds, borders, and trellises.

Planting Tips

Space 18-24 inches apart in well-draining soil. Dig a hole twice the container width and backfill with soil. Water thoroughly after planting. Use quality potting mix for containers.

Maintenance

Pinch back tips regularly to encourage fullness. Prune annually to shape in early spring. Repot in a larger container when rootbound. Remove dead growth as needed.

Pests & Diseases

Watch for whiteflies, spider mites, and mealybugs. Improve air flow. Control pests with neem oil or insecticidal soap sprays. Prevent fungal disease by avoiding wet foliage.
