Cultivation: Nemesia 'Aromatica' has very aromatic flowers. They are an excellent choice for early spring planting in containers or beds. When the temperatures start to heat up the plant tends to decline. If their soil is kept moist during the heat of the summer you may be able to stretch their longevity.

Plant Nemesia Aromatica Deep Blue in full sun in moist fertile well drained soil either in beds or containers. Space plants 8" to 12" apart. Fertilize monthly with a balanced liquid fertilizer when in beds... twice monthly in containers.  Pinch the tips of the plants to help keep them bushy and to increase flowering. Fairly cold tolerant. 

Potential pests ~ diseases:
Root rot if kept to wet.
