About this Plant

Karoo Dark Blue Nemesia (Nemesia fruticans 'Karoo Dark Blue') is a sophisticated perennial favorite known for its tireless bloom cycle and incredible color depth. This selection from the Karoo series is specifically bred for a compact, mounding habit and superior weather resistance. It produces a cloud of delicate, snapdragon-like flowers in a rich, saturated indigo-blue with a tiny yellow eye that "pops" against the dark green foliage.

As a resilient member of the Nemesia genus, 'Karoo Dark Blue' is much tougher than older varieties, standing up beautifully to both early spring chills and the onset of summer heat. It emits a light, sweet fragrance that is especially noticeable on calm, warm days. Perfect for the "filler" role in premium mixed containers or as a colorful edging along garden paths, it provides a high-end, polished look with very little effort.

Why you’ll love it:

  • Continuous Blooms: Flowers prolifically from spring through autumn, especially if lightly sheared mid-season.
  • Intense Blue Hue: Offers a deep, "royal" blue color that is rare in the garden.
  • Fragrant & Compact: Sweetly scented flowers on a tidy mound that never gets leggy.

Product Details: This Karoo Dark Blue Nemesia is delivered as a robust 4-inch live plant in a nursery pot. It reaches a height of 10-14 inches and thrives in full sun to partial shade.
