Description

The listing, Dianthus Deltoides "Microchip" Mix -- 25 seeds!! has ended.

Dianthus deltoides is a spectacular first-year-flowering perennial that forms a dense evergreen mat around 10cm (4in) tall. The real joy of this plant comes from late spring when a seemingly impossibly large number of flowers are borne in quick succession giving several months of both colour and clove-like scent. Whilst at times sporadic, flowering can carry on until mid September and beyond.

Dianthus deltoides ‘Microchips’ has glaucous blue-green foliage that is blanketed with hundreds of large flowers with serrated petal tips in shades of white, pink and rosy-red with crimson rings. The flowers appear in abundance, just poking their heads above the foliage. In the early morning dew or after a shower of rain they sparkle like diamonds.

This quite exceptional little plant will and grow up to 50cm (20in) wide, it covers bare spots quickly. Heat tolerant and hardy to minus 35°C (30°F), they are at their best in full sun but will also grow in part shade. The plants will tolerate a wide range of soils provided they are well drained.
Dianthus deltoides look at home at the front of the border or tucked amongst boulders in a rock garden. They can be grown in large groups for underplanting or used as a ground cover in gravel gardens or to edge a path or walkway. Use them for sloping areas or plant in crevices or on top of walls. They also make an attractive addition to container gardens.

Thank you for looking:)
