40 Jumbo Plug Plants (81684)

Pot up dianthus plug plants into 9cm pots and grow them on in warm frost free conditions. When dianthus plants are fully rooted into their pots, and all risk of frost has passed, acclimatise them to outdoor conditions over 7 to 10 days. Plant Pinks in any well drained soil in full sun.

Feed and water dianthus plants regularly until they are fully established. Make sure to weed between plants when they are young. Deadhead faded dianthus flowers frequently to encourage more blooms to be produced.

Van Meuwen strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.
