A dazzling groundcover that delivers a carpet of intense, true-blue flowers unlike anything else in the garden. From November through May in Cape Town’s climate (late spring to autumn), this compact perennial bursts into bloom, creating waves of vibrant color that shimmer in the sunlight. Its silvery-green foliage provides a soft contrast, making the flowers appear even more luminous. Perfect for edging, containers, hanging baskets, or mass planting, Blue My Mind™ thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. Heat- and drought-tolerant once established, it’s a reliable choice for waterwise gardens. Transform your garden into a sea of blue with the Evolvulus ‘Blue My Mind’
Plant in full sun with well-draining soil. Water regularly during establishment, then reduce as it becomes drought-hardy. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage continuous flowering. Ideal for containers, it cascades beautifully over edges. Protect from frost in winter, or treat as an annual in colder areas.
The name Blue My Mind™ was chosen because its flower color is so intensely blue that gardeners often say it “blows their mind.” Evolvulus belongs to the morning glory family, but unlike its relatives, it stays compact and blooms steadily without becoming invasive.
