Diascia barberae 'Fisher's Flora' (Diascia barberae)

This is a hardy plant, its flowers are upright and it's forming a nice clump now in its third year.

I do too - I inherited a Diascia rigiscens, which flopped a bit but was lovely. It pegged out about three years ago and I haven't seen another one.

I planted this, to take its place. It's better in some ways, being upright.

I only have the ground covering one (Little Dancer i think it's called), it's gorgeous too.

I get those for my containers (contents usually composted come autumn) - as plugs - but last year I saved and potted up three white ones. I've planted them in my new bed, and they are doing well. I do have more Diascia around the garden, which I inherited, and it pops back up each year. I shall try them from seed, I think,
