Perrenial dainthus

Good thing you knew GT. I too have gotten some great bargains due to staff ignorance..lol.

I love it really, GG. :-) This was Lowe's they'll toss anything handling so much volume. Always a good bargain plant there. Thats where I got my banana tree for $4!

my favorite! dianthus´s are absolute fabs for me.

Me too Nelke. I'm growing my collection. Sad I lost Mrs pinky last year to winter, I should have brought her in. I've some different forms of dianthus and some dianthus hybrid or mini carnations as well and some real carnations this year. I had one strawberry parfait dianthus which I thought to be annual come through winter too. I'm devoting two whole beds. :-)

that must be a gorgeous smell.

Still unbloomed, but I cannot wait for that nice delicious smell to overcome all the rest. One of my favorites.
