Plant Theory Set Of 3 Cremarena Pot Pink Bedding Plant Dianthus Diantica In 9Cm Pots

A scented ‘pink’ that loves to show off! The flowers are mostly semi-double in nature, prolific (if deadheaded), and convoluted with vibrant raspberry ripple markings. Dianthus ’Cremarena’ carries a light fragrance, and the mild winter persistent grey-green foliage is noteworthy as it contrasts well with so many other green plants.A beautiful plant for the front of borders, rock gardens and patio pots, the name Dianthus comes from the Greek words dios meaning divine and anthos meaning flower.Dianthus thrives in well-drained, alkaline soil enriched with well-rotted manure or garden compost. When planting, choose a sunny location with good air circulation. Space plants 30cm (12in) apart to allow for growth. Water deeply but infrequently (rather than little and often) to encourage deep root development, especially during dry spells.In spring, apply a balanced granular fertiliser to promote healthy growth and abundant blooming. Mulch around the plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds,
