Description

There are approx 2 small plants in an 8cm pot

This plant flowers before the other dieramas.  It has open flowers of orchid pink and instead of hanging from the stems , like most dieramas , they are upward facing, which makes it an unusual flower for the species
Dieramas like an open, sunny position in a fertile, loamy, moist, but well-drained, soil, which doesn’t dry out in summer or become waterlogged in winter. Heavier clay soils and lighter sandy soils should be improved by incorporating well-rotted organic matter. Alternatively, dieramas do well in raised beds.

Dieramas can be promiscuous, pollinating easily with other species and varieties. These seedlings may produce some flower colours differing from the parent plant.
