Dianthus ‘Little Jock’
Border Pinks |
USDA Zone: 2-9 |
Plant number: 1.180.610
Border Pinks have been popular in gardens for centuries. This selection forms a low mound of grassy blue-green leaves. Short stems of small single flowers appear in early summer, in a soft rose-pink shade with a maroon eye. Well suited to edging any sunny border, or for growing in the rock garden. Plants should be trimmed lightly after blooming to maintain a tight, compact mound. Not always easy to divide, but this can be attempted in spring or early fall. Evergreen.
