Cultivation: 'New Wonder' is a Proven Winners selection that is heat tolerant and cold hardy to 35 degrees.

Scaevola produces an unusual flower in the shape of a fan. It sort of looks like the plant only grows half of a flower. It will flower non-stop all season long. Scaveola can be planted in beds, mixed containers or hanging baskets where it will cascade down over the sides.

Plant Scaevola New Wonder in full sun to light shade in fertile well drained soil, either in beds or containers. Drainage is the key to successful growing. Scaevola dislikes having wet feet for extended periods as it is a drought tolerant species. Space plants 10" to 12" apart. Fertilize every two weeks with a balanced liquid fertilizer.

Available colors: Blue Shamrock, Mauve Clusters, New, Wonder, Petite Wonder, Pink Fanfare, Spring Rhapsody, Sun Fan, White Charm, and Whirlwind White.

Potential pests ~ diseases:
Rare.
