Dianthus arenarius
Dianthus arenarius Dianthus arenarius

So floriferous, so sweetly scented and fascinatingly frilly! Bursting out in mid-Spring from a low, dense, compact blue-green mat, it forms a swarm of 1” pristine white flowers held upright on slender branching stems to 12” x 12”. Loves drainage so definitely let it spill charmingly over the edge of your bed (espe­cially in front of pink or apricot roses) or love it in a pot. After bloom, cut stems back to foliage for a second late-Summer thrill! Drought tolerant!
