Expert Gardener 2QT Orange Dianthus Live Perennial Plant Sun 3-Pack

Dianthus is filled with 5-petaled blooms that are fringed or frilly looking at the edges. Typically in various shades of pinks, lavenders, reds, whites or variegated options, Dianthus is a showy, fragrant plant that is beautiful in garden beds and cutting gardens or containers. Bees and butterflies are attracted to Dianthus and it is resistant to deer. Plant these colorful flowers grouped together in garden beds, or combine them with other annuals and perennials for a beautiful mix of seasonal color. This beauty will arrive to you with minimal flower blooms. We ship them this way to ensure they arrive safe and healthy, but more importantly so you can enjoy their beautiful flowers longer. Remove them from the box and water dianthus if the soil feels dry. For healthy plants that will bloom all season, water until plants are established. Then simply water as needed. Feed plants with an all-purpose fertilizer in spring and fall at the base of the plant.
