Brachyscome ‘Brasco Violet’

Common Name:
Brachyscome 'Brasco Violet'

Description:
Brachyscome 'Brasco Violet' is a cheerful and compact native daisy prized for its masses of rich violet-purple flowers and soft, finely divided foliage. This hardy Australian cultivar delivers vibrant colour across much of the year, especially in Melbourne’s temperate climate where it blooms prolifically from spring through to autumn. The flowers feature a classic yellow centre, creating a striking contrast against the purple petals. Ideal as a ground cover, edging plant, or in containers, it thrives in full sun to part shade and prefers free-draining soils. Regular deadheading will encourage a longer flowering season. Tolerant of light frost and short dry spells once established, it is perfect for low-maintenance native or cottage gardens.
