DIANTHUS PICTURE
|
This Dianthus picture is from a container on our deck. These small flowers with
brilliant colors look like miniature carnations. We cut back the previous years
growth in early spring and dead head new blooms when the flowers die. Each stem
usually has three buds on it so you have to be careful not to remove the new
buds. This type of Dianthus blooms from spring to the fall. |
