Dianthus caryophyllus ‘Grenadin Red’
Hardy Carnation |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |
Plant number: 1.180.940
Carnations are hardy, typically short-lived perennials in the garden. Plants form a low mound of grassy grey-green leaves, bearing upright stems of fully double, florist-type flowers in shades of red and scarlet. Wonderful spicy-clove fragrance. Excellent for cutting. Good drainage is essential for winter hardiness. Plants perform best in areas with cool summers. Divide clumps every second spring, or plant new ones to maintain vigour. Evergreen.
