Plus Apricot Twinspur carries clouds of warm apricot-orange flowers on fine wiry stems above a dense, even mound of small green leaves. Each bloom trails the pair of backward-pointing spurs that gave twinspur its name. Ships as a live 4-inch plant.

Diascia Breezee 'Plus Apricot' belongs at the edge of things — hanging baskets, window boxes, the front rank of a patio pot — where semi-trailing stems lean out and keep flowering from summer into fall. The airy habit lets it weave between heavier bedding plants, and it holds a tidy outline through changeable weather. Set it against blue or silver foliage for a proper sunset combination.

Fun fact: Those twin spurs are not decoration. In Diascia's native South Africa they hold floral oil rather than nectar, and long-legged Rediviva bees have evolved forelegs just long enough to reach in and collect it.
