Brachyscome Dark Mauve Pot Bedding Plant

The brachyscome brings a British countryside vibe into your space. The ideal plant for containers and hanging baskets, it looks particularly effective in a window box. Flowering from June to October this flowering annual will bring a traditional feel into your garden. The blue daisy-like flowers sit on slender stems that emerge from a thick bush of slender foliage. These compact and easy to look after plants will look great in any container and will do well at the front of a border of the bed. Plant in any well-draining soil that receives full to partial sun. This plant will do well in the dappled shade so under a tree or hedge would be a good location. Make sure you choose a spot protected from high winds. Water regularly to keep the soil moist, but not wet. If your containers are in a more sunny location you should water your plants in the evening to avoid damage.

Feed weekly with small amounts of diluted nitrogen-rich fertilizer to get the best results.

Your brachyscome will not need pruning during the flowering season. During the early spring you may want to prune back the foliage slightly for neatness and encourage new growth. You will not need to deadhead the flowers unless you want to for looks.
