Scaevola aemula 'Mauve Clusters' is a hardy Australian native ground cover that produces masses of attractive mauve fan-shaped flowers over an extended flowering season. Its naturally spreading habit makes it an excellent choice for borders, rockeries, retaining walls, hanging baskets and containers. Tough, heat tolerant and low maintenance, it provides reliable colour for Sunshine Coast gardens throughout much of the year.
Flowers
Produces abundant clusters of soft mauve fan-shaped flowers from spring through to autumn, with flowering often continuing for much of the year in warmer climates. The nectar-rich blooms attract native bees, butterflies and other beneficial pollinators.
Foliage
Small, bright green foliage forms a dense, spreading mat, providing year-round interest and an attractive contrast to the colourful flowers.
Fruit
Produces small, inconspicuous fruits after flowering, which are not considered an ornamental feature.
Form & Size
A low-growing, spreading evergreen ground cover.
Height: 15–25 cm
Width: 1–1.5 metres
Growing Conditions
- Thrives in full sun to part shade.
- Prefers well-drained soil.

Uses

Maintenance
Water regularly during establishment. Once established, 'Mauve Clusters' requires minimal watering. Light trimming after flowering encourages fresh growth, maintains a compact habit and promotes repeat flowering. Apply a balanced slow-release fertiliser in spring if desired.
Notes
Mauve Clusters is a versatile native that provides long-lasting colour with very little maintenance. Its spreading growth habit makes it ideal for filling spaces, suppressing weeds and cascading over walls and garden edges.
Companion Plants
Looks beautiful planted with Lomandra, Dianella, Grevillea, Westringia, Myoporum, Carpobrotus, Kangaroo Paw (Anigozanthos) and other Australian native ground covers and shrubs.
