The flowers cover compact plants in a colorful display that resembles a miniature garden festival, making this mix especially useful for containers, baskets, window boxes, borders, and cool-season bedding. With its vivid colors and long bloom period, Carnival Mix brings instant charm to spring and fall gardens.

Garden Uses:
Carnival Mix Nemesia is excellent for patio containers, hanging baskets, window boxes, edging, rock gardens, cottage gardens, and the front of flower borders. The wide range of colors makes it easy to blend with pansies, violas, alyssum, lobelia, snapdragons, and other cool-season annuals. Its compact size also makes it a wonderful filler plant in mixed container arrangements.

Growing Information:
Sow seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost or directly outdoors during cool weather. Seeds usually germinate in 7-14 days at 65-70°F. Plant in full sun to partial shade and provide fertile, well-drained soil. Carnival Mix typically grows 8-12 inches tall with a similar spread. Nemesia performs best in mild temperatures and may slow down during extreme summer heat, often blooming again when cooler weather returns.
