DIANTHUS( DEVON COTTAGE™ SERIES)
Devon Cottage Pinks, Pinks
A series of hybrids recently developed in England, these little dears will surely steal your heart. Seated atop a nest of spikey, grey-green foliage, the semi-double to double, cheerfully fringed flowers arrive each spring in an abundant array of pure white, pinks, reds and bicolor combinations. Flowering continues through summer, though it may dwindle during the hotter months.
Their spicy-sweet frangrance and slender stems make these hybrid pinks ideal for arranging, but be sure to leave some blooms in your garden as a butterfly treat. Plant them in full sun to partial shade and well drained, neutral to alkaline soil, or use them in containers for added color and texture. Divide every 2 or 3 years to maintain vigor.
