dianthus amurensis

dianthus amurensis

this dianthus is showy blooming in this intensive blueish pink. First I was not able to find out the exact needs of it. The one growing on chalky soil died, the other one in about 7 PH came again... So I hope, it has sown out...

I have lots of these in my garden. They seem to be evergreen. They also bush out as they get older but I have not known them to seed and self sow in my garden. The Scottish Rock Garden Club seed exchange do offer seed in their distribution list.
