Grower Information
: A Simply Beautiful® selection. Includes 7 Growers Choice varieties – these top performers deliver the most uniform habit and timing across the key New Guinea impatiens colors. Controlled habit is ideal for small pot programs. Mid-size Celebrette delivers early, continuous flowering; excellent branching; and large, eye-catching blooms all season. The controlled habit means plants won’t outgrow the container and will promote better sell-through. Like its Celebration companions, Celebrette thrives in both hot and cool conditions.
Propagation Information
: Apply preventative fungicide spray after sticking. Reduce mist as soon as possible. Scout regularly for Botrytis. require less mist.
Culture Information
: Maintain 68°F (20°C) average daily temperature to optimize bloom size and reduce time to flower. Cooler temperatures will extend crop time. Grow crop somewhat dry to help control growth and hasten flowering. Avoid excess micro-nutrients in the soil. With good cultural practices and environmental conditions, no PGRs will be needed.
Plant Growth Regulators
: Bonzi(S) 2-15 ppm can be used to control habit early; Bonzi(D) 0.25- 2.0 ppm applied as crop matures will control final height but not delay flowering or reduce flower size. Florel(S) 100-200 ppm can be used to improve branching but will usually not be needed.
