Fringed Pinks [ Dianthus Superbus ] is short-lived perennial to 40cm. 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 [ Dianthus Superbus ] 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.

The plant attracts butterflies.
