The Aromance® Mulberry™ Nemesia or Nemesia fruticans is native to South Africa, but the darling flowers and easy-to-maintain attitude make this beauty a favorite everywhere. The flowers have a two-lipped, tubular shape for a unique look. The petals are a purple hue with a bold yellow eye. The Aromance® Mulberry™ Nemesia is a long-blooming plant with flowers opening up in the spring and continuing to bloom during summer. Green, lance-shaped foliage grows in pairs.
Keep the Aromance® Mulberry™ Nemesia close by so you can admire the beautiful flowers and enjoy their sweet fragrance. Use this flowering plant as a filler in a container, or plant in the middle or front of a bed, or mass planting. Feature this nemesia in a hanging basket with other flowering plants for a burst of color and greenery. Aromance® Mulberry™ Nemesia grows as a perennial in USDA zones 8 through 10 and is grown as an annual in other areas.
Aromance® Mulberry™ Nemesia Care
Plant the Aromance® Mulberry™ Nemesia outside after there is no longer a threat of cold weather or frost. The soil should be moist and well drained. Choose soil high in organic material to support additional flushes of flowers. Apply a layer of organic mulch to retain moisture and give the plant extra nutrition. Nemesia plants need partial to full sun.
Plants in beds or borders benefit from an application of a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in the spring. Potted Nemesia plants do best with a monthly dose of a water-soluble fertilizer throughout the growing season. Aromance® Mulberry™ Nemesia is self-cleaning, which means the spent flowers fall away on their own, and deadheading isn’t necessary.
Aromance® Mulberry™ Nemesia Spacing
Aromance® Mulberry™ Nemesia is a medium-sized plant that reaches 10 to 18 inches tall and 12 to 18 inches wide. Space plants 8 to 10 inches apart to create a full bed, or feature 2 to 3 plants in a 12-inch container.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
