Lace Flower 'Roselace Mix'

Also known as Pink Lace Flower or Didiscus (Trachymene coerulea), this charming mix features soft pink and creamy white blooms held in delicate, domed umbels. These airy flowers float atop slender, branching stems that are loaded with buds but light on foliage, making them an ideal choice for elegant, romantic bouquets.

Blooming from mid-summer to fall, Didiscus reaches about 60 cm (24") tall and brings a touch of vintage grace to borders, containers, and cutting gardens. Mildly fragrant and exceptionally long-lasting in the vase, these blooms are a favourite among floral designers. Prefers full sun and well-drained soil. Easy to grow and slow to fade, this mix is both ethereal and dependable—a must-have for soft garden palettes.

HOW TO GROW:

Didiscus seeds are best direct sown after the last frost, as the plants dislike root disturbance. Sow seeds ¼" deep, as darkness aids germination, and keep soil evenly moist until seedlings emerge—typically within 10–20 days. For a longer bloom window, successive sowings every 2–3 weeks from spring through early summer are recommended. While transplanting is possible, it should be done with care. If starting indoors, sow seeds 4–6 weeks before the last frost in deep individual pots (such as peat or coir) to minimize root disruption. Provide bottom heat to encourage germination, and harden off plants carefully before transplanting outdoors. Didiscus prefers full sun, well-drained soil, and moderate watering. Blooms appear approximately 90–100 days from sowing and are ideal for cutting gardens, adding a delicate, lacy texture to bouquets.
