The Bacopa 'Scopia Double Lavender' is a very recent selection of Sutera that forms a remarkable cushion with a semi-trailing habit, dense foliage, scattered with large double flowers for a bacopa, of a soft and luminous lavender blue. This plant, suitable for mild climates, grown as an annual, blooms long and abundantly, from May-June to October. It allows for quickly and charmingly filling hanging baskets and balconies, alone or in combination with other varieties as well as with all terrace plants. The Bacopa 'Scopia' is also suitable for creating delightful flower borders.
Bacopas are perennial plants or frost-tender shrubs of the Scrophulariaceae family, originating from South Africa. The Scopia ® 'Double Lavender' selection develops slightly woody stems that spread all around the base, quickly forming a spread-out, rounded and very bushy plant, about 25-30 cm (9.8 - 11.8 in) in height by 35-40 cm (13.8 - 15.7 in) in width. They are adorned with small green and velvety heart-shaped leaves, about 1.5 cm (0.4 in) long, with toothed edges. The stems are covered with bouquets of double flowers, 3 cm (1.2 in) in diameter, generously scattered along their entire length, originating from the axils of the leaves. The flowers of the 'Scopia Double Lavender' variety are well open towards the sky and truly luminous, ranging from blue-mauve to almost white. They have a tubular base and spread out in double corollas, almost completely concealing a small cream-yellow heart.
Thanks to their silhouette, bacopas easily blend with all balcony and hanging basket plants. They can be paired, for example, with taller flowers such as dwarf roses, pennisetums or pelargoniums, double impatiens, but are just as effective grouped together or even used as ephemeral ground cover in flower beds. The 'Double Lavender' Bacopa is perfect for brightening up a windowsill or the base of a partially sun-exposed wall. It will accompany all pastel-toned flowers and temper the vibrant colours of trailing surfinias and fuchsias.
Note: Please be aware that our young plants in mini-plugs are professional products intended for experienced gardeners: upon receipt, transplant and store them in a sheltered place (veranda, greenhouse, cold frame...) at a temperature above 14C° for a few weeks before being planted outdoors once all risk of frost has passed.

Botanical data
Plant your bacopas in a sunny location or possibly in partial shade in very hot regions. These plants need a light and humus-rich soil and appreciate a fertiliser supply. They tolerate a periodically dry soil quite well, but regular watering is essential to support flowering in the ground as well as in pots. You can plant your bacopas in a pot where they need to be watered more regularly and fed with a fertiliser for flowering plants. Be careful not to let water stagnate in a saucer, as bacopa roots dislike excessive moisture. Usually grown as annuals, they are actually fragile perennials: by bringing them indoors at the first frost, you can extend their flowering period during autumn and winter. Outdoor cultivation is possible by the seaside, with good mulching in winter. Plan for light pruning in March. To further branch out the bacopas, you can pinch the tips of the stems to encourage them to divide.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
