Perennial Dianthus
Perennial Dianthus is easy to grow and hardy from zone 3 to 9, occasionally 5 or 8. The genus includes hundreds of annual, biennial, and perennial species; we only sell perennial species, subject to Mother Nature.

Plant dianthus in full sun (minimum half day), or light shade in the most southern zone or extremely hot conditions. Compact clumps of evergreen foliage can be planted in clay to sandy soil, as long as it is well-drained, it does prefer neutral to slightly alkaline soil. Do not mulch heavy, unless with pea stone or gravel.

With its clove-like fragrance, this low-growing member of the carnation family, is a great choice near an entry or walkway, and a perfect choice for many landscape solutions, as long as it is well-drained. After flowering in late spring, with most new varieties, the spent flowers can be cut back to promote rebloom. Avoid over-watering, usually once a week until established will suffice.

PLANTING: Set plants 6 to 10 inches apart. Choose a sunny location. The ideal soil is gritty, with a substantial lime content, and well-drained. MAINTENANCE: If plants become too open or loose in the center, they can be trimmed back to the bushy central growth after flowering. Deadheading will, in any case, enhance plants' attractiveness and many lengthen blooming period. We recommend a winter mulch.
