Nemesia is a genus of annuals, perennials and sub-shrubs which are native to sandy coasts or disturbed ground[2] in South Africa. Numerous hybrids have been selected, and the annual cultivars are popular with gardeners as bedding plants.[3] In temperate regions they are usually treated as half-hardy, grown from seed in heat, and planted out after all danger of frost has passed.

The flowers are two-lipped, with the upper lip consisting of four lobes and the lower lip two lobes.[2]

The following cultivars have gained the Royal Horticultural Society’s Award of Garden Merit:-[4]

Blue Cloud = ‘Penblue’[5]
‘Innocence’[6]
Melanie = ‘Fleuron’[7]
Nemesia denticulata[8]
