Dianthus 'Passion'

Pinks

Plant Type: Perennial
Exposure: Sun Tolerant  

Large, fully double, fragrant flowers with smooth-edged petals open above the foliage like a bouquet of little roses. The blue-green to grey-green leaves are a bit longer than shorter varieties of Dianthus, forming a spiky clump of evergreen foliage in the landscape. blossoms have a strong, spicy fragrance which is even more noticeable when you cut a few for your fresh bouquets. Some have reported that this variety tends to bloom 2-3 weeks earlier than others in the SCENT FIRST series.
