Growing 'Forest Fruits' Nemesias

Nemesias need full sun and well-drained soil. Those in the Sundae series are frost tender, rated H3 by the RHS, which means they should be fine outside in warm locations, especially in the microclimate next to a house or sunny wall. In colder areas, they should be brought into shelter overwinter; elsewhere, horticultural fleece will be enough to protect them in a typical winter.

The plants themselves are drought tolerant when well established, but they need watering in dry weather to keep on flowering.

When your new plants get growing, pinch off the growing tip of the new shoots to make them bush out nicely. If you need to tidy them in future years, trim them lightly in March or April.

In Your Garden Design

It's a good idea to plant nemesia in pots close to your back door or somewhere near to where you can pick up their lovely scent. They are often partnered with the equally sweet-smelling purple sage and can have a necklace of a small-leaved ivy surrounding them. Marmalade Heuchera is a good companion plant too. In borders, plant against a backdrop of clematis bijou, the purple Alstroemeria Inticancha Navayo and the frilly Monarda Balmy Pink, which is a good combination in containers too.

Did You Know?

The Sundae collection was bred to create bi-colour flowers with a stronger scent.
