Sunsatia® Cranberry Red Nemesia

Sunsatia® Cranberry Red is a compact, mounded annual nemesia with cranberry-red flowers and a trailing edge that suits containers, baskets and front-of-border planting. Proven Winners lists a 6–10 inch height, 12–16 inch spread and flowering from spring through fall, with strong early-spring performance. ## Seasonal display The [Proven Winners cultivar profile](https://www.provenwinners.com/plants/nemesia/sunsatia-cranberry-red-nemesia) identifies the flower shade as cranberry red, the habit as mounded and the container role as filler. The page lists planting-to-hard-frost flowering and notes that plants can flush out of flower during very warm nights. In mild climates this makes it useful for cool-season containers and edging; local frost and heat set the actual display window. ## Growing conditions Grow in sun to part sun with good drainage. The [RHS nemesia guide](https://www.rhs.org.uk/plants/nemesia/how-to-grow-nemesia) recommends moist, fertile, mildly acidic soil for nemesias and notes that most are tender, flowering best in cool spring or autumn weather. Allow space for the spreading stems, and use a container or a well-drained raised bed where garden soil stays wet. ## Maintenance Water after planting and keep the root zone evenly moist without leaving the pot waterlogged. Proven Winners describes this cultivar as self-cleaning, so routine deadheading is unnecessary. Feed container plants regularly during active growth; trim lightly only if heat interrupts flowering and the plant needs reshaping.
