Description
Dianthus Oscar ‘Purple Star’ is a beautifully uniform, compact plant that stands out with its striking star-like blooms. Each flower shows off a deep, rich purple centre that fades softly into lighter tones toward the edges, creating a bold “purple star” effect that really catches the eye.
The petals have a gentle ruffle, giving the flowers a pretty, lively look that brings colour and charm to any setting.
This variety is perfect for the front of sunny borders and looks fantastic in patio pots and window boxes, where its vibrant flowers can be enjoyed up close.
Plant it in a bright, sunny spot with well-drained soil, and water regularly while avoiding soggy conditions.
A light feed during the growing season and removing faded blooms will keep it flowering beautifully. Easy to care for and full of personality, Dianthus Oscar ‘Purple Star’ adds a lovely splash of colour wherever it’s planted.
