Re: Sutera cordata (Bacopa)
Bacopa is a nice container or basket plant that does well in sun (until
the midsummer heat sets in), or semi-shade.
I have wintered it over in a 50 degree greenhouse, and a coldframe.
Bear in mind, our winters are Zone 8. It's a very popular plant that
I've sold for about 3-4 years, and it's still one of our best sellers.
Watch for aphids, which can elude detection easily.
Average moisture (don't let it dry out!), full to part sun. Does best
in potting soil, as opposed to garden soil, altho the difference can be
minimal if it's well amended.
