Diascia barberae is a tender South African perennial typically grown as an annual, popular in patio bedding and container displays, especially hanging baskets.

Diascia 'Juliet Orange' bears masses of apricot-orange blooms on upright plants, all summer long. It works well with diascias in different colours, as well as other bedding favourites such as petunias and verbenas.

Grow Diascia 'Juliet Orange' in moist but well-drained soil or compost in full sun. Frost-tender, take cuttings in late summer or lift plants before the first frosts and overwinter them indoors.
