Dianthus superbus Seeds

Common Name: Fringed Pinks

Dianthus superbus or Fringed Pinks as it is commonly known is a short-lived perennial to 50cm tall. Grassy green tufts of narrow evergreen leaves set the stage for the deliciously fragrant, ethereal flowers. Feathery and fringed, the five-petaled, green-eyed blooms, colored in soft pinkish lavender hues, grace long but sturdy branched stems that emerge in a relaxed fashion before ascending. Fringed Pinks is best grown in a cool spot with rich, well drained soil, and this plant will provide a multitude of lacy, loose floral clusters to enjoy all summer long. Easy to grow and vigorous in well drained soil, Dianthus, with neat mounds of linear blue, green or gray-green foliage, are an ageless addition to any garden, especially suited to timeworn habitats such as the rockery, walls or stone pathways. The plant is fragrant and attracts butterflies to the garden.
