More About Bacopa ‘MegaCopa™ White’

Bacopa ‘MegaCopa™ White’ is a premium trailing bacopa bred for larger blooms, stronger growth, and improved heat tolerance. Its crisp white flowers are noticeably bigger than those of standard bacopa varieties, creating a bright, cascading effect that remains clean and attractive throughout the growing season.

As part of the MegaCopa™ series, this variety was selected to outperform traditional bacopa in both vigor and longevity. Where older types can thin out or slow down in summer heat, ‘MegaCopa™ White’ continues flowering steadily, maintaining a full, lush habit from spring through fall.

Why We Like It (Our Trials)

In our trials, ‘MegaCopa™ White’ has been exceptionally reliable in containers and hanging baskets. With consistent moisture and light feeding, it fills in quickly and produces a continuous display of blooms without the need for deadheading.

We especially appreciate its versatility. The bright white flowers pair effortlessly with bold colors and dark foliage, making it a perfect spiller in mixed containers and window boxes. It also performs beautifully along edges and in raised beds where a soft, cascading look is desired.

Bacopa ‘MegaCopa™ White’ vs. Other Bacopa

For gardeners who want big, showy blooms and bold garden presence, MegaCopa™ White stands out as the high-impact choice in the Bacopa lineup. Compared to the Scopia® Gulliver Series, MegaCopa White features significantly larger flowers and a more vigorous trailing habit. While the Gulliver varieties deliver controlled growth, tidy branching, and balanced performance, MegaCopa® White pushes the envelope with thicker stems, fuller plants, and a cascade of lush white blooms that dominate larger containers and hanging baskets.

Against Megacopa Pink, our White variety offers a cleaner, brighter look that complements bold companion colors without introducing additional hues, making it especially effective in classic, elegant plantings. The MegaCopa® series as a whole tends to grow more freely and powerfully than the Gulliver selections, but the white form’s crisp tone can provide refreshing contrast in mixed combinations.
