Bacopa 'Double Lavender'

How to grow Bacopa 'Double Lavender' in NZ

Bacopa 'Double Lavender' grows best in a sunny to partially shaded position with fertile, well drained soil. It performs particularly well in containers and hanging baskets where moisture can be managed easily. Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during warmer weather, as dry conditions can reduce flowering. Incorporating compost or quality planting mix before planting will encourage vigorous growth and flower production. Providing some afternoon shade in hotter regions can help maintain flower quality and prolong the blooming season.

Bacopa 'Double Lavender' care tips

Bacopa 'Double Lavender' is easy to maintain and rewards gardeners with an extended flowering season. Water regularly to prevent the soil from drying out and feed every few weeks with a balanced liquid fertiliser during active growth. Trim back any leggy stems to encourage bushier growth and a fuller display. Removing spent flowers is generally not necessary, as the plant naturally remains tidy. Consistent watering and feeding will keep plants healthy and flowering abundantly throughout the season.

Bacopa 'Double Lavender' size, spacing, and growth rate
