Fruity, vanilla-scented blooms give Heliotropium 'Nautilus Blue' its more common and fun name - the 'Cherry Pie plant'!Deeply saturated, opulent purple flowers bloom from late spring and well into summer, attracting bees, butterflies, and pollinators to your garden.Dense, glossy, dark-green foliage shows off the rich violet blooms beautifully.A tender plant, usually grown as an annual but can be overwintered in a greenhouse, porch, or conservatory to flower in subsequent years.Compact and perfect for pots, placed where you can enjoy the sweet scent on a warm afternoon or evening. H&S: 30cm x 30cmFabulous when planted with trailing Nemesia, Verbena, and daisy-like Osteospermum together in a large container. Or plant several Heliotropium together in a pot or window-box for maximum impact and perfume!Heliotropium 'Nautilus Blue' grows best in well-drained soil, rich in organic matter to ensure a continuous supply of blooms. This Peruvian native thrives in a warm sunny spot.A stem of vanilla-fragranced Heliotrope was laid upon the coffin of the famous American poet Emily Dickinson in 1886.
