Compact, colourful Dianthus plants bred for reliable flowering, neat growth and long-lasting seasonal interest, perfect for borders, containers, rockeries and detailed garden displays.Dianthus, commonly known as Garden Pinks, are cherished for their finely fringed blooms and tidy, cushion-forming habit.
