Description
Mega Bloom Red is a warm-season flowering bedding plant with vivid red blooms set against dense green foliage. Its mounding to upright habit adds strong color to sunny garden beds and mixed containers. Depending on growing conditions, plants may reach roughly 6–18 inches tall and wide.
Growing Mega Bloom Red in Alabama
In Alabama, plant outdoors after the danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed. Choose full sun to light afternoon shade, with fertile, well-drained soil and good air circulation. Water deeply when the upper soil begins to dry, taking care not to keep the roots constantly wet in humid weather. Container plants may need more frequent watering during summer heat. Feed moderately during active growth rather than overfertilizing. Protect plants from frost; in most Alabama gardens this is treated as a warm-season annual.
