Dierama Ripe Cherries is a new and exciting plant! It is a dwarf of “Angels’ Fishing Rods” and is definitely a plant you want to run quick and get and put in your garden!! These plants were recently created and have arching stems that carry pendent bells ranging in colors from red to pale purple. The blossoms open in sequence along wiry stems, and overhang beautifully above a clump of grass-like leaves that are long and narrow, that are evergreen in mild winter climates. To produce these new plants, Plant World Seeds crossed two different dwarf Dieramas which resulted in plants that were small and very hardy. Their parents, who are two Alpine Dieramas, came from high up in the Drakensberg Mountains of South Africa. They have a blooming season ranging from early to late Summer, will grow between 16 – 22 inches tall, and do best in full sun with well-draining soil. These showy flowers will attract pollinators to your garden such as Hummingbirds, Butterflies, and Bees while being resistant to Deer and Rabbits. They look great
in beds and borders in the garden and are also low maintenance plants. Another great
characteristic about these plants is that they are usually disease and pest free. They also pollinate easily with other species and varieties.

I urge anyone buying seed to do their homework on germination, I have not raised and cannot raise many of these plants as I am sub-tropics here in St Augustine, Florida. All seed are NOT alike! There are so many different factors in germination and not doing a search is throwing your money away. I want everyone to be successful when growing your flowers from seed it is the most rewarding experience in Gardening and you can do it, if you give the seed what it needs to grow. I always check 3 sites of info to choose how I will go about it. It is not hard to do, if you do it right!
SEED GERMINATION TIP!!!!!!!
ONLY GERMINATE A SMALL PORTION AT A TIME.
DON'T PUT ALL YOUR MONKEYS IN A BARREL.
Good Luck and Happy Planting!!!!
