Sunsatia® Blood Orange™ Nemesia

Sunsatia® Blood Orange™ is a compact, mounded nemesia with vivid orange flowers whose shades can include red and yellow. Proven Winners lists a 10–14-inch height, 12–16-inch spread, and flowering from early spring through fall until hard frost, making it useful for seasonal color in pots, hanging baskets, and window boxes. [Proven Winners’ cultivar profile](https://www.provenwinners.com/plants/nemesia/sunsatia-blood-orange-nemesia) also identifies it as an annual with average water needs and a preference for good drainage. Its warm color and tidy form work well as a container filler or in mixed seasonal plantings. The profile notes that it is self-cleaning, so routine deadheading is unnecessary; if flowering pauses during sustained heat, a light trim can encourage branching and renewed bloom when cooler conditions return. Keep containers draining freely and avoid persistently wet soil. The breeder describes the cultivar as vigorous and more heat tolerant than many nemesias, while its listed flowering season remains spring through fall. ## Maintenance Provide part sun to sun and well-drained soil. Water regularly enough to maintain average moisture, with drainage especially important in containers. Deadheading is not required; trim lightly only if plants pause flowering during prolonged heat.
