Blue Fan Fan Flower
Scaevola aemula ‘Blue Fan’
The Blue Fan Fan Flower is a charming, heat-loving perennial prized for its unique, half-circle blooms and exceptionally long flowering season. A native of Australia, this fast-growing plant forms a low, spreading mound of bright green, lance-shaped foliage that remains lush all summer . From late spring until the first hard frost, it produces a continuous display of small, five-petaled flowers in a soft lavender-blue hue, each shaped like a delicate fan or half-moon, which gives the plant its common name . Incredibly resilient and low-maintenance, this self-cleaning plant thrives in hot, humid, and dry conditions, making it a superb, carefree choice for adding a cascading waterfall of cool color to hanging baskets, container combinations, and sunny garden beds.
