Common Questions
Can bacopa plants survive winter?
Bacopa is winter hardy in growing zones 9 to 11 and some parts of zone 8. In all other zones, the only way to keep your plant through winter is to bring it inside and place it in your sunniest window.
How long do bacopa plants bloom?
Your plant will be covered with flowers all season, almost as soon as you plant it out until frost.
Should you cut back bacopa plants?
Bacopa is a 'spiller', meaning it has a trailing growth habit. It won't harm the plant to cut it back if it becomes too long or overcrowded in a pot. You can take off several inches and start new plants with the cuttings.
Why don’t I have a lot of flowers on my bacopa?
Your plant probably needs to be moved to a cooler location with morning sun and afternoon shade. It could take 3 weeks or so for the flowers density to return to normal.
My bacopa looks wilted, why?
Bacopa needs to be consistently moist. If your plants are droopy look and make sure your soil has not dried out. Aphids can also cause wilting.
