I'm confused I live in zone 5 I have planted calibrachoas in different parts of my yard front and back. I have one that has more flowers on it to the point you can hardly see the green foilage.I have two of the same in front and they are spindly and few flowers. I water & fertilize.The front gets afternoon sun the back morning sun.What maybe wrong? I have another in a pot and is super.

 I'm not sure why you're having trouble, other than there might be some reflected heat, or the soil doesn't drain as well as it should. You might try pinching back the spindly plants to encourage more stems and flowers. Hope this helps them fill out and look beautiful!
