Nemesia Sunsatia® are a series of low maintenance plants with a compact, mounded shape, elegant semi-trailing flower bearing stems and a profuse flowering from spring to autumn. Sunsatia® ‘Clementine’ has stunning two toned flowers with scarlet red upper petals contrasting pure white flower lower petals with central yellow eye that continue to bloom and rebloom all season.
Nemesia Sunsatia® are ideal for container gardening, to provide stunning floral accents in a large pot or in hanging baskets. They look fabulous planted in single colour or combination with other plants. Nemesia Sunsatia® can also be grown in the garden in well-drained soil, providing stunning winter colour.
PPlant into sunny, part shaded well drained garden beds to which compost has been added. Likewise, when planting into pots, use the best quality potting mix you can buy and some compost or slow-release fertiliser at potting. Do not allow potting mix or soil to dry out but avoid over-watering to prevent fungal disease in hot, humid weather. In warmer climates with high humidity, Nemesia do best in pots with good airflow.
Nemesias are self-cleaning, so deadheading is unnecessary. However, the flower-bearing stems tend to bend once they reach a certain height, and therefore Nemesia do benefit from pruning. Cut the too-long stems back to their base above the auxiliary shoots, and within two weeks a new burst of colour appears.
A yearly application of fertiliser or compost on garden beds and regular fertilization of plants in pots will help ensure the best possible performance.
Wear gloves & wash hands after gardening.
