Scaevola aemula ‘Saphira’ (P)

Scaevola aemula ‘White Wonder’ (VR) SCAX0226

Sapphire-blue, fan-shaped flowers above glossy green, semi-trailing foliage.

Angelic white flowers on well behaved, but trailing foliage.

Scaevola aemula Scaevola are beautiful and intriguing plants that originate from the hot sandy dunes of Hawaii, Southern Australia and Polynesia where they get plenty of sunshine and aren’t troubled by the salty coastal winds. In this country they can be treated as annuals for instant colour from early summer until the first frosts. Pop them in a sunny spot and they will reward you. Fan-like, half rosettes of flowers make this an attractive and unusual plant, they are great for instant colour on a sunny patio in pots, containers, window boxes and hanging baskets where they will surely flourish. They look great on their own or mixed with companion plants in containers. Try with Ipomoeas or Petunias which can be found on our website or in our catalogue. Provide Scaevola with good drainage as they don’t like to get their feet wet sitting in water. Also excellent for coastal gardens as they are not bothered by the harsh winds.
