Dianthus ‘Bouquet Purple’
Bouquet Purple Dianthus |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |
Plant number: 1.185.750
This exceptional hybrid strain of Dianthus is a true multi-use plant, excellent for massed bedding, growing in the perennial border or in mixed containers and tubs. Plants are midsized, with upright stems of dusky plum-purple flowers for months on end. Fragrant blooms clusters are large and excellent for cutting. Remove fading flowers to encourage more buds to form. Although hardy into Zone 4, plants may also be treated as bedding annuals since they flower well during the first year.
