Description
This Diascia 'Breezee Plus White' is a vigorous, early-flowering and very floriferous selection, easy to combine. It tirelessly offers, from spring until the first frosts, above its small heart-shaped green leaves, a profusion of small double-spurred, white flowers. This delightful annual will form beautiful columns or border suspensions and planters. It will also make lovely low borders, it is very attractive in rockeries, or cascading casually over walls. A plant to use without moderation in well-drained soil, in non-scorching sun.
Diascia 'Breezee Plus White' belongs to the family of Scrophulariaceae, it is a cultivar derived from Diascia barberae, native to southern Africa, Lesotho, and KwaZulu-Natal. This plant has a spreading habit, forming a small bush 25cm (9.8in) tall and 15cm (5.9in) wide. The very early flowering starts in early spring and only ends with the first frosts. It produces clusters of small white flowers with broad lips, extended downwards by two spurs. The diameter of the flowers does not exceed 1cm. These flowers somewhat resemble snapdragons. The foliage, deciduous to semi-evergreen depending on the climate, is composed of small heart-shaped leaves, 2cm (0.8in) long, medium green.
Diascia 'Breezee Plus White' can be used in the ground and in pots, alone or mixed with other low-growing species such as Lithodora, silver baskets, and aubrietas. Given its bushy habit, both upright and cascading, it will look good in beds, borders, ground cover, rockeries, planters, or hanging baskets, in the gaps between walls and paving stones. This plant will look stunning when planted in a flower column, accompanied by other varieties such as Diascia 'Breezee Plus Orange' or Diascia 'Breezee Plus Pastel'.
Note: Attention, our plug plants are professional products reserved for experienced gardeners: upon receipt, transplant and store them under shelter (veranda, greenhouse, cold frame...) at a temperature above 14C° for a few weeks before being installed outdoors once the risk of frost is definitively excluded.

Planting and care
Install the Diascia 'Breezee Plus White' in a fertile soil to support flowering, moist to occasionally dry, humus-bearing, perfectly drained in winter. This young plant dreads stagnant humidity. The further south you go, the more the plant fears the scorching afternoon sun and dry soils. It is helpful to pinch the terminal shoots to accentuate the habit. Cut back faded stems after flowering. This diascia is hardy up to approximately -8°C (46.4°F), in a perfectly drained soil. In winter, outside mild climate regions, it is advisable to shelter this tender plant in a cold greenhouse or unheated conservatory.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
