Pinks (Dianthus) are traditional cottage garden plants, coming in a range of colours and forms. Short-lived perennials, they make excellent bedding plants, and are perfect for growing at the front of sunny borders and in containers. Many varieties are scented and they make fantastic cut flowers.

The fully double flowers of Dianthus 'Vinko' have ruffled, yellow petals with very fine pink veining. Flowers are borne on strong stems, making them ideal for using in indoor flower arrangements.

For best results deadhead Dianthus 'Vinko' regularly to prolong flowering. Trim back plants in autumn to promote new growth, and protect from excessive wet conditions in winter. Prune again in spring to maintain a tidy growth habit.
