Plant Description

The Dianthus Garden Pink in ‘Candy Floss’ is a beautifully scented, hardy perennial with soft grey-green foliage and continuous flowering throughout the season. This garden pink produces an abundance of candy-floss pink blooms, each accented by a darker pink centre that creates a subtle swirling pattern. Its neat, compact mound makes it ideal for edging pathways, brightening borders, or adding vibrant colour to pots and window boxes, all while filling the air with its classic fragrance.

It thrives in sunny spots with well-drained soil, is easy to grow, and becomes drought-tolerant once established. Regular deadheading encourages even more flowers, extending its display. Whether planted in borders, rock gardens, pots, or window boxes, Dianthus ‘Candy Floss’ provides months of colour, fragrance, and effortless elegance.

What does pot diameter mean?

Pot diameter is measured along the top of each pot to give an indication of overall plant size on arrival.

We only offer plants in 13cm or 11cm pots. This means that plants are established and ready to be planted straight into your garden as soon as they arrive.

*Our specially designed boxes require no plastic inners. The plant pots are (recyclable) plastic.
