Enjoy pretty light blue flowers on Sutera Snowstorm Glacier Blue (S. cordata), a trailing annual also called Bacopa. The blooms are dainty, but plentiful. The plant’s stems are graced with flowers all season, with no need to prune or deadhead. With its short mounding height but long spreading stems of color, Snowstorm Glacier Blue will fill and spill over a basket or container or cover the ground with all-summer blooms.
This Bacopa grows to only 4 to 10 inches high and spreads out 12 to 24 inches. In the landscape, it can grow along the edge of garden beds or “carpet” a slope. It can add lots of color to a patio container. Bees are attracted to the light blue blooms. This award-winning annual will bring plenty of continuous color to nearly any area of the landscape.
Snowstorm® Glacier Blue Bacopa Care
Plant Sutera Snowstorm Glacier Blue in spring where it gets full sun or partial sun, about 4 to 6 hours a day minimum. Although the plant has average water needs, it does not fare well if the soil dries out completely. The flowers and buds will drop off if drought stressed, but watering it regularly can bring flowers back into view within a couple of weeks. Blooming also might slow down a little during peak heat of summer, but will pick up again and continue until frost.
The continuous bloomer self-cleans, so there is no need to remove spent blooms. A light prune won’t hurt bacopa if needed to shape the plant. Although it can bloom without fertilizer, adding some organic compost or a balanced fertilizer at least once in late spring can help the plant keep performing. Fertilize container-grown plants a little more often for best performance.
Snowstorm® Glacier Blue Bacopa Spacing
Since Snowstorm Glacier Blue spreads, it works well as an edge plant or groundcover. Give the plants some room to grow, spacing them about 8 to 12 inches apart, depending on the effect you want.

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.

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).

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.
