Diascias are the quintessential window box and mixed container plant. The Flying Colors™ line comes to us from the Netherlands and offers stunning new colors that mix particularly well with Sutera (Bacopa). Their tremendous flower production and the large flower size creates a stunning contrast with the deep green foliage and strong growth habit. Available in: Trailing Antique Rose, Apricot, & Coral.
