Once again I am going to guess Dianthus. Whatever it is sure adds a lot of color.

More flowers opened today, there are quite a few different ones. There is a white-red flower that is really eye-catching and a few with pink and red. It's a very pretty combination of colors, they must spread every year.

I've seen it listed as annual, biennial and short-lived perennial. Whatever it is, it sure spreads quickly. I can't believe how many have opened this week. I tried checking that link but couldn't get it to open, I'll have to try it again later
