Hi All,
I grow this lovely pink shrub/perennial in the garden which flowers endlessly and is a really nice tall compact plant. I have only ever seen a picture of it once in gardening magazine and foolishly didn't take note of what it was called! the bees seem to like it and it is just about the simplist thing ever to take cuttings from which never fail. For such a great plant I'll be blowed if I can find an ID for it anywhere! I've looked in my 'many' reference books and searched just about every combination I can on Goggle but still don't know what it is!!!!
Please please please ID it for me someone??????...... I'm slowly becoming a broken man from all these late nights searching the internet for 'pink flowering plants!!!'.....
Cheers
Higgy
I think Sugar has the answer for you Higgy, the nemesia is much shorter and supposed to be an annual, hey lovely flowers to have whatever the name.
Lot to learn
Yep Diascia is correct! I have done some further research and have pinned it down to DIASCIA PERSONATA....
Here is a link if anyone is interested in finding out a bit more about it...

I can highly recommend this plant it is a real show stopper which flowers from Spring - October!
Thanks all for your kind input, they were appreciated as always!
