Blueberry Custard Escential Nemesia

Blueberry Custard Escential Nemesia (Nemesia Escential 'Blueberry Custard') is a delightfully fragrant, compact perennial annual producing charming bicolor blooms in rich dark violet-blue with soft golden-yellow accents — a sophisticated, dessert-inspired color combination that creates a refined, jewel-toned display in containers, mixed annual plantings, and cottage garden borders. The Escential series is celebrated for its exceptional fragrance, superior cool-season performance, and compact, well-branched habit that delivers prolific blooming from late winter through late spring and again in fall — making it one of the most rewarding and aromatic ornamentals available for cool-season organic container gardens.

Grown from our premium organic heritage program, each plant ships with a Professional Grade root system — dense, well-branched, and ready for immediate establishment. Blueberry Custard thrives in full sun to part shade with consistent moisture and performs most prolifically during the moderate temperatures of late winter, spring, and fall — blooming abundantly when other annuals are just beginning to emerge. Its compact, mounding habit, exceptional fragrance, and sophisticated bicolor color palette make it an outstanding choice for patio containers, mixed cool-season plantings, fragrant window boxes, and front-of-border arrangements where early-season color and delightful fragrance are equally valued.

• Exceptional Sweet Fragrance — Escential series blooms are notably more fragrant than standard nemesia, delivering a delightful sweet scent that perfumes the surrounding garden and patio space throughout the cool-season bloom period.
• Sophisticated Bicolor Dark Violet-Blue & Yellow — Rich dark violet-blue petals with golden-yellow accents create a jewel-toned, dessert-inspired color combination that adds refined elegance to any cool-season container or border planting.
• Outstanding Cool-Season Performer — Blooms most prolifically in the moderate temperatures of late winter, spring, and fall, making Blueberry Custard an essential plant for extending the ornamental container season into cooler months.
• Compact & Well-Branched Habit — Naturally mounding, compact form stays tidy without pinching, making it ideal for patio containers, window boxes, mixed cool-season planters, and fragrant front-of-border placements.
• Pollinator Friendly Early Bloomer — Fragrant bicolor blooms attract native bees and beneficial insects during the critical early spring foraging season when cool-weather pollinator food sources are most limited and valuable.

These 4" healthy live plants thrive in full sun to part shade with consistent moisture — water when the top inch of soil is dry and apply a balanced liquid fertilizer every two weeks to sustain prolific blooming through the cool-season period. Blueberry Custard is a tender perennial grown as a cool-season annual in most climates; plant in early spring for late winter through late spring color, or in late summer for a vibrant fall display. Trim lightly after the main bloom flush to encourage a fresh second wave of fragrant flowers through the season.
