Dianthus arenarius Sand Pinks
A Hebron Hardy plant meaning it was planted in the field when
we moved plants from Glenview in 1987 and survived unattended
until 1992. Tight, silver green mounds explode with 10" long
arching stems carrying fragrant single white flowers from May into June.
Takes it moist or dry in full sun to light shade.

flowers at the end of summer into fall. Full sun, well drained soil. |

Dianthus gratianopolitanus Cheddar Pinks
'Tiny Rubies' - An extremely compact
mounding habit and a profusion of fragrant, double rose-pink 1/2"
flowers that almost cover the foliage in May make this one of the best
retail sellers. Needs good drainage and division every three or so
years. Full sun.

Dianthus subacaulis
Cheddar Pinks
'Gary Eichhorn' - Reminiscent of 'Tiny
Rubies' variety with cleaner foliage. Short, clean, spreading mounds
with delicate, very fragrant, pink flowers starting mid May. Full sun to
light shade, well drained soil. An Intrinsic introduction!
