Nemesia picture:
Fleuroselect This is a breakthrough
variety. For many years nemesias have been a little
too straggly and their flowering season has been
too short. 'Sundrops' is neat, with a unique
rounded habit, and comes in twenty separate shades
spreads across five main colours. It's much more
like a modern dwarf bedding plant although you may
feel that the slightly straggly habit of other
nemesias is rather endearing &endash; I do. ©copyright

But 'Sundrops' also has the longest season of all
the nemesias so perhaps it can be forgiven for
being a little dumpy. It also tolerates hot dry
conditions better than other nemesias. 'Sundrops'
is available only as mixture, but the individual
colours will be introduced.
