A vigorous but relatively short-lived soft-wooded ground cover with toothed mid-green foliage. Extremely floriferous and showy for many months of the year. One of the best true pink Scaevola aemula on the market. A great feature, border, pot or hanging basket plant. Feed with a good native fertiliser through the warm months, watering afterwards to avoid leaf or root burn.
