Scaevola albida ‘White Mist’ – Fan Flower
The outstanding mass displays of snow white flowers on a vigorous ground covering plant are the key features of this relatively long lived fan flower. It makes a great feature, border, pot or hanging basket plant. A light trim at the end of its spring flowering flush is the only maintenance required and this is only necessary if the plant is looking untidy.
