Dianthus ‘Grenadine Mix’ (Carnation)

Dianthus caryophyllus

Plants form a low mound of grassy grey-green leaves, bearing upright stems of fully double, florist-type flowers in shades of rose and pink. Wonderful spicy-clove fragrance. Excellent for cutting. May need to be staked or planted among other tall plants that will help hold up the flower stalks. Prefers good drainage.  Too much water will cause them to become leggy and weak. Evergreen growing to 16-20″ tall.  Prefers full sun. Perennial.
