Didiscus Madonna Mixed

Tax included.

 I love Didiscus....gorgeous, unusual and delicate looking. 

They make the most wonderful cut flowers with their beautiful, small flower umbels and strong, straight stems.

If you remove any leaves that would be below the waterline they have a good vase life too.  This variety contains lavender, white, blue, pink and rose-coloured flowers which look enchanting in an arrangement with other cottage garden favourites.

They can be slow to germinate but be patient....they are well worth the wait!
