Prolific and long-flowering, this colourful perennial produces its bright pink flowers throughout the summer if grown in a sunny spot and dead-headed regularly. Compact in habit, they also look wonderful when planted en-masse in a sunny border, but are also excellent for pots, rockeries and hanging baskets.
Protect newly planted Diascia from overnight frosts (if still present) in the early stages of establishment. Once divide congested plants in early spring or late summer. Protect young plants from slugs and snails. Trim after flowering. Protect from excessive cold or wet winter weather.
