DIANTHUS
Dianthus chinensis
Persian Carpet
Often referred to as Garden Pinks
A uniform compact mixture of dianthus bearing masses of medium sized flowers in solid colours with shades of red, pink and rose.
Garden Pinks enjoy full sun and well drained soil.
Frost tolerance and with some resistance to bolting Dianthus make great border plants.
When established Dianthus do not require a lot of water which makes them very useful in containers but they do appreciate the occasional thorough soaking.
Always remove old flower heads.
Apply a slow release fertilizer in late winter to promote early growth.
