A truly special find, this 2-in-1 climber shrub combines two different colours in one pot for a striking, ready-made display. Flowering continuously from spring through autumn, the mix of vibrant blooms against glossy green foliage creates instant impact on patios, balconies, or garden beds. Whether climbing a light trellis or spilling from a decorative pot, this mixed planting delivers a cheerful and unique feature for Cape Town and Western Cape gardens.
Easy to grow and wonderfully rewarding, Dipladenias thrive in full sun with moist, free-draining soil. Water regularly, feed every 2–3 weeks during the growing season, and protect from frost in cooler areas. Avoid planting directly against hot walls; instead, allow them to twine naturally on airy supports. With two colours flowering together, this combination is a favourite for gardeners wanting maximum contrast and beauty with minimal effort.
