| Lore | Petchoa, a hybrid between petunias and calibrachoas, is purportedly less hairy than its petunia parentage, which allows for it to self-clean, whereas the notoriously hairy foliage and stems of petunias are "sticky" and trap fading blooms, therefore must more frequently be cleaned for a tidy looking plant. |
