Scaevola humilis 'Pink Fusion'

Common Name:
Fan Flower 'Pink Fusion'

Description:
Scaevola humilis 'Pink Fusion' is a compact, spreading Australian native ground cover prized for its masses of soft pink fan-shaped flowers and dense green foliage. Flowering prolifically over the warmer months, it creates a colourful carpet effect that is ideal for garden borders, rockeries, retaining walls, hanging baskets and containers. This hardy selection is well adapted to Melbourne conditions, thriving in full sun to part shade and well-drained soils. Once established, it displays good drought tolerance and requires minimal maintenance, making it an excellent choice for waterwise landscapes and coastal gardens. The extended flowering period and nectar-rich blooms attract bees and other beneficial pollinators, while its tidy, low-growing habit provides year-round garden appeal.
