Description

Diascia hybrids are annual that come in different colors, depending on the variety. They reach 10"-16" tall and spread 12"-18" wide. Because they are upright and spreading in a short time, they look great in hanging pots or in planters in full sun. If kept pruned and well watered, the beautiful flowers can be enjoyed almost all year round.

Water Saving Tip:

Apply a layer of mulch around plants to reduce moisture loss.

Organic mulches, such as shredded bark, compost or aged sawdust will also break down and improve the soil.
