Description How to Grow More Info Delivery

Dianthus 'Diane' has large, salmon-pink double blooms with a delicious clove fragrance. With a vigorous habit, this RHS AGM variety quickly forms clumps of slender grey-green leaves, and flowers over a long period throughout the summer. Also known as Pinks, these hardy evergreen perennials are an easy, low maintenance addition to the garden. Grow Dianthus in cottage garden borders, patio containers, coastal gardens or on sunny banks where they tolerate drought well. Scented pinks also make marvellous, very long-lasting cut flowers. Height and Spread: 50cm (20").

Culinary information: Use the clove like tasting petals for adding to cakes, either for flavour or decorating, suitable for soups, salads and sauces too. For more details about edible flowers click here.
