Elderberry Cream Escential Nemesia

Elderberry Cream Escential Nemesia (Nemesia Escential 'Elderberry Cream', syn. N. hybrida 'Penw1051') is a captivating, sweetly fragrant cool-season perennial annual producing elegant bicolor blooms in deep blue and pure white with vibrant golden-yellow eyes — a crisp, sophisticated color combination that evokes the delicate beauty of elderflower blossoms and brings a refined, woodland-inspired charm to containers, mixed cool-season plantings, and cottage garden borders. Like all Escential series nemesia, Elderberry Cream delivers notably superior fragrance, exceptional cool-season blooming performance, and a compact, well-branched habit that makes it one of the most rewarding and aromatic cool-season ornamentals available for organic patio and container gardens.

Grown from our premium organic heritage program, each plant ships with a Professional Grade root system — dense, well-branched, and ready for vigorous, immediate establishment. Elderberry Cream thrives in full sun to part shade with consistent moisture and blooms most prolifically during the moderate temperatures of late winter, spring, and fall — delivering abundant, fragrant cool-season color well before and well after standard summer annuals. Its crisp deep blue, white, and golden-yellow color combination pairs exceptionally well with soft lavender, yellow, and white cool-season companions for elegant, harmonious mixed container and border arrangements throughout the cool growing season.

• Exceptional Sweet Fragrance — Escential series blooms deliver a notably superior sweet fragrance that perfumes the surrounding patio and garden space throughout the cool-season bloom period, making Elderberry Cream as sensory as it is visual.
• Crisp Deep Blue, White & Gold Tricolor Blooms — Deep blue and pure white petals with vibrant golden-yellow eyes create a crisp, sophisticated tricolor display with a refined woodland-inspired elegance unlike any standard cool-season annual.
• Outstanding Cool-Season Performance — Blooms most prolifically in the moderate temperatures of late winter, spring, and fall, delivering abundant fragrant color during shoulder seasons when most annuals are unavailable or underperforming.
• Compact & Well-Branched Tidy Habit — Naturally mounding, compact form stays neat and refined without pinching, making it ideal for patio containers, fragrant window boxes, mixed cool-season planters, and front-of-border placements.
• Early Spring Pollinator Support — Fragrant tricolor blooms attract native bees and beneficial insects during the critical early spring foraging season when cool-weather pollinator food sources are most scarce and ecologically 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 cool-season blooming. Elderberry Cream 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 fragrant fall display. Trim lightly after the main bloom flush to encourage a fresh second wave of fragrant blooms through the season.
