Nemesia Nesia Inca

Common Name:
Nemesia ‘Nesia Inca’

Description:
Nemesia ‘Nesia Inca’ is a compact, free-flowering perennial (often grown as an annual in cooler climates) renowned for its vibrant and warm-toned blooms in shades of golden yellow, burnt orange, and soft amber. This eye-catching variety produces masses of lightly scented flowers that create a rich, glowing display from early spring through to autumn in Melbourne conditions. It forms a neat, mounding habit, making it ideal for borders, edging, and container planting. ‘Nesia Inca’ thrives in well-drained soil and prefers a full sun to part shade position, with best flowering occurring in cooler weather. Regular deadheading and light trimming will encourage continuous blooming and maintain a tidy appearance. Its bold colouring and long flowering season make it a standout choice for adding warmth and brightness to garden spaces.
