Diascia barberae 'Pink Queen'

  • Product number: 517800
  • Origin: South Africa
  • Latin: Diascia barberae

Great for use in pink-blue combinations due to its light pink colour.

Fortunately, this delightful plant is now available as seeds for you! Although present in Europe since 1870, this plant has only received much attention in recent years. It blooms profusely with lip-shaped flowers, which are divided in two at the centre. With some protection, it is even winter-hardy!

Latin: Diascia barberae
