Didiscus Mix Seeds

Didiscus Mix Seeds

Didiscus Mix produces delicate, lace-like flowers in soft pastel shades, bringing a relaxed cottage garden feel to beds, borders and wildflower-style plantings. Held on slender, branching stems above airy foliage, the blooms make beautiful cut flowers for fresh arrangements.

This Australian native annual attracts bees and other pollinators and tolerates a range of well-drained soils. Its graceful flowers add colour and texture throughout the warmer months.

How To Grow

Sow seeds in punnets approximately 3mm deep, covering completely with seed-raising mix. Keep moist and warm during germination, which generally takes 12 to 22 days. Transplant seedlings carefully once they have two sets of true leaves, avoiding root disturbance.
