Dianthus carthusianorum is a tall pink with small, single, dark pink flowers held above grassy foliage. It’s a good choice for growing with ornamental grasses or a pictorial meadow scheme, but it works equally well in a border alongside other herbaceous perennials.
Grow Dianthus carthusianorum in moist but well-drained, alkaline soil, in full sun. Deadhead spent blooms to prolong flowering.
