      If they are strong, healthy looking plants, I would say 6 is enough.
      All on the top? Hoping they will trail down over the sides?

        Sorry, forgot to answer the rest, I think they will be mainly on top as they aren't the trailing kind. Getting them from a reliable seller on ebay so they should be good plants, I can't seem to get a tray of 6 the same colour in the garden centre they are always mixed colours.
