Scaevola 'Crystal'

Fairy Fanflower

Scaevola 'Crystal' is a compact herbaceous perennial grown for both its foliage and flowers. It bears masses of white, fan shaped flowers off upright stems through spring and summer. The flowers are complemented by small and round, dark green leaves which serve as a lovely contrast to the flowers. For NZ gardeners, it is an appealing choice for flower borders, mixed containers, and colourful patio displays. Give it full sun or light shade and fertile soil with good drainage to support its best growth. Bring it into a planting plan that matches your space and gardening style.

Care for Scaevola 'Crystal' by matching moisture and feeding to its growing season. Water when the soil begins to dry, especially during summer and when grown in pots. Feed during active growth with a suitable flowering plant fertiliser. Remove spent flowers and damaged foliage to keep the display tidy. Cut back tired growth when appropriate and monitor for aphids or other pests. Avoid leaving the roots in saturated soil. Regular checks help you respond promptly to changing conditions.

Scaevola 'Crystal' typically reaches about 40 cm tall and 40 cm wide under suitable conditions.

Final size varies with climate, soil, container size, and maintenance. Allow for the expected spread when positioning plants beside paths, walls, or neighbouring specimens. Check the developing plant regularly and adjust nearby planting as its natural form becomes clearer.
