Description
The Bacopa 'Scopia Double Snowball' is a very recent selection of Sutera that forms a remarkable cushion, dense in foliage, sprinkled with large double flowers for a bacopa, which are similar to small roses of perfect white. This plant, suitable for mild climates, is grown as an annual and blooms for a long time and abundantly, from May-June to October. It allows for quickly and effectively filling hanging baskets and balconies, either alone or in combination with other varieties as well as with all terrace plants.
Bacopas are perennial plants or frost-sensitive shrubs of the scrophulariaceae family, originating from South Africa. The Scopia ® 'Double Snowball' selection develops slightly woody stems that spread all around the base and quickly form a rounded and very bushy plant, approximately 25-30 cm (10-12in) in height by 35 cm (14in) in width. They are adorned with small green and velvety heart-shaped leaves, approximately 1.5 cm (1in), with toothed edges. The stems are covered throughout the summer with bouquets of 3 cm (1in) diameter double flowers, generously scattered along their length, originating from the axils of the leaves. The flowers of the 'Scopia Double Snowball' variety are fully open towards the sky and truly bright. They have a tubular base and spread out in double corollas, almost completely covering a small yellow center.
Thanks to their shape, bacopas easily combine with all balcony plants. For example, they can be paired with taller flowers such as dwarf roses, pennisetums or geraniums, double Impatiens, but they are just as effective when grouped together or used as ephemeral ground cover in flower beds. The 'Double Snowball' Bacopa is perfect for brightening up a windowsill or the base of a partially sun-exposed wall. It will accompany all pastel-toned flowers and temper the vibrant colors of trailing surfinias and fuchsias.
Note: Please be aware that our young plug plants are professional products intended for experienced gardeners: upon receipt, repot and store them under cover (veranda, greenhouse, cold frame) at a temperature above 14C° for a few weeks before planting them outdoors once the risk of frost has definitively passed.

Planting and care
Plant your bacopas in a sunny location or possibly in partial shade in very hot regions. These plants need a light and humus-rich soil and appreciate a fertilizer input. They tolerate a temporarily dry soil quite well, but regular watering is essential to support flowering. You can plant your bacopas in a pot where they should be regularly watered. Be careful not to let water stagnate in a saucer, as bacopa roots dislike excessive humidity. Usually grown as annuals, they are actually fragile perennials: by bringing them indoors at the first frost, you can extend their flowering into autumn and winter. Outdoor cultivation is possible by the seaside, with good winter mulching. Prune lightly in March. To further branch out the bacopas, you can pinch the tips of the stems to encourage them to divide.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
