Algerian Ivy

Algerian ivy—little care with great results

It’s easy to take some plants for granted; they grow like crazy, do their job under challenging conditions, and somehow manage to always look attractive. We pay them little to no attention—because they don’t require any—and accept all the glory for the beautiful designs we create with them. This is one of those plants.

Unusual fan-shaped flowers love the sun

Scaevola is known for its unusual fan-shaped flowers, which is ironic because this plant loves the sun and heat. We use it in containers and landscape beds in the summer when we want color that will last the whole season.

Our new Fairy series fans out as well, putting on a lavish display with its free branching nature. Plants reach around 6–10 inches tall and can trail up to 18 inches. The pretty trailing foliage is covered with cool flowers from spring to fall; it’s great for outdoor containers and hanging baskets. 

White is beautiful, but save room for the blue and pink

We have three colors to choose from: Blue, Pink, and White. All are available in the 4.5-inch pot. 

Lots of blooms, lots of color

When in doubt, go with a classic and as you can see, this new viola has all the charm of the timeless combination of violet and yellow. We like this new spin, with delicate purple picotee edging on fragrant, bright sunny flowers.

Penny violas deliver lots of blooms on nicely mounded plants. They look great in containers and massed in the border or as edging. This is another series we count on in summer for its reliable heat tolerance. 

‘Penny Primrose Picotee’ comes in the 8-inch pot.
