Key Features of Bacopa:

Growing Tips:

Plant Bacopa in well-drained soil and ensure the plant receives at least 4–6 hours of sunlight a day for the best bloom performance. In areas with hot summers, Bacopa will appreciate partial shade. This plant can be planted in containers, window boxes, or directly in the garden, and it will spread quickly to form a lush, mat-like groundcover.

Water regularly but avoid overwatering — Bacopa prefers evenly moist soil. Once established, it is relatively drought-tolerant, making it a great option for low-maintenance gardens. Prune back any spent flowers to encourage new blooms and keep the plant tidy.
