Description: 'Rave® Pink' is a vibrant cultivar of Calibrachoa, celebrated for its abundant, large pink flowers featuring a distinctive star pattern. This early-flowering plant boasts good branching and is easy to manage in growth. Its semi-trailing habit makes it an excellent choice for hanging baskets, containers, and garden beds.
