Dianthus gratianopolitanus 'Bath's Pink'

[ height 6-8 in., late spring, soft pink flowers, sun, carpet former ]

Dianthus PINKS Charming garden plants for edging borders and walks, or a ground cover for small areas. Adaptive to a wide range of soils as long as it drains well, preferring gritty, limy soils in the pH range of 7.0 - 8.0. 'Bath's Pink' forms a solid carpet of foliage rather quickly that remains in good condition all season. A brilliant flower show covers the foliage. Dead-head spent flowers after blooming, cutting into the foliage a bit.
