Diascia anastrepta in full bloom

When top performance Diascia cordata blooming occurs, a plant may be profusely flower-covered as this one seen near the Sani Pass.

The flowers grow in stem-tip racemes on glandular-haired pedicels up to 3,5 cm long. The bracts below the flowers are oval to lance-shaped with acutely pointed tips. The five sepals are unequal, some up to 5 mm long. The two spurs angled outwards behind the corolla are about 7 mm long. The pink corolla has a white patch on the outside of its tube, coinciding with the hollow where one of the two unequal pairs of stamens is positioned (Manning, 2009; iNaturalist; https://www.worldfloraonline.org).
