What is Felicia Blue?

Felicia blue refers to a group of perennial flowering plants known for their deep blue blooms and lush green foliage. Most “Felicia blues” are cultivars of Felicia amelloides, sometimes called blue marguerite or blue daisy. These compact plants grow tidily in borders, rockeries, pots, and baskets, bringing reliable colour from late spring to autumn. With regular deadheading, Felicia blue can keep flowering through much of the year in New Zealand’s mild conditions.

Popular Varieties of Felicia Blue

There are a number of Felicia blue varieties to explore:

Interested in something with a different hue? Felicia Mauve Cloud (Mauve Cloud Felicia) brings a soft mauve twist to the classic Felicia colour palette.

Growing Felicia Blue in New Zealand

Felicia blue is an excellent performer across New Zealand’s temperate climates. Choose a full sun position with free-draining soil. Felicia blue is drought-tolerant once established and can handle light frosts. To encourage continuous flowering, deadhead spent flowers and give a light trim after each main flush. These plants attract bees and beneficial insects, making your garden both beautiful and wildlife-friendly.

Felicia blue is superb for colourful borders, coastal gardens, cottage gardens, and mass plantings. They combine well with silver-foliaged plants, lavenders, and other low-growing perennials. For pots, use quality potting mix, feed with a balanced fertiliser during the growing season, and water regularly to enhance blooms.

Why Choose Felicia Blue for Your Garden?

Felicia blue is an outstanding addition to New Zealand gardens because of its long flowering period, ease of care, and resilience. Whether you favour the classic Felicia Felicity Blue (Felicity Blue Felicia) or the unique foliage of Felicia amelloides variegata (Variegated Blue Marguerite Daisy), there’s a Felicia blue suited to every design. Explore our huge selection and bring the unmistakable charm of Felicia blue to your home today.
