Evolvulus hybrida 'Blue My Mind' is a compact, spreading perennial prized for its vivid blue flowers and silvery-green foliage. A member of the morning glory family (Convolvulaceae), it thrives in warm climates and is well-suited to Australian gardens. This hardy plant is heat and drought-tolerant, making it perfect for sunny, dry locations. The eye-catching flowers are funnel-shaped, opening in the morning and closing by late afternoon, providing continuous colour throughout the growing season.

• Foliage: Soft, silvery-green leaves with a slightly fuzzy texture.

Growing Conditions:

• Soil: Well-drained; tolerates sandy and rocky soils.
• Watering: Moderate; drought-tolerant once established, but benefits from occasional watering during extended dry spells.

• A great choice for hot, dry areas or gardens requiring low-maintenance plants.
