Burst into life with sweetly scented pink blooms with the Thompson and Morgan Dianthus Plumarius Sweetness Mixed Seeds, creating a vibrant display in perennial borders and cottage gardens while attracting pollinators. You'll enjoy flowers in the first year if you sow early, making it a rewarding choice for gardeners who love quick results. Hardy and easy to grow, the plants thrive in full sun and require little maintenance-just trim spent blooms at season's end. Supplied as a packet of 20 seeds, each comes with clear growing and care instructions to help you achieve a lush, fragrant garden. Sow from February to April. Sow seed on the surface of lightly firmed, moist seed compost in pots or trays and cover with a fine sprinkling of compost or vermiculite. Keep at a temperature of between 18-20ºC (64-68ºF). After sowing, do not exclude light as this helps germination. Keep the compost surface moist but not waterlogged; germination usually takes 14-30 days. When large enough to handle, transplant seedlings into 7.5cm pots or trays. Gradually acclimatise plants to cooler conditions for a few weeks before planting out after all risk of frost, 30cm apart. Product Specifications: Position in: full sun Height: Up to 20cm. Spread: Up to 25cm. Delivered with growing and care instructions.
