Gorgeous Garden Pinks, the EverBloom™ Plum Glory Dianthus (Dianthus x 'G18146') are scented, vibrant members of the Carnation family! These are smothered in a domed mound of bright pink blooms, each with a plum circle around the eye of each flower! Fringed petals and gorgeous wide-open flowers atop slender stems.

The compact, blue-green frosted round clumps and small slender, pointed leaves are almost continuously covered in pink and plum, scented flowers from May until October in many areas. Garden Pinks delight you with pollinators and Hummingbirds! Plus they are adorable cut flower stems for nosegays and bud vases!

EverBloom™ Dianthus have a near-continuous bloom time! Compact perennials throughout USDA growing zones 4- 9, and can be evergreen to semi-evergreen in mild winter climates! Low-growing accents, these Dianthus only reach 6-8 inches when in bloom and spread politely to an 18-24 inch domed mound.

Planting and Application:

Garden Pinks are also delightful in mixed or massed containers on your porch, patio, and around a sunny deck! These space-saving accents are perfect for Xeriscaping, thrive in Rock gardens, and look lovely as sunny edging along paths and walkways. Use in your crevice gardens and rock walls, soften the tops of retaining walls, or use as facer plants and front of the garden borders.

Plum Glory Garen Pinks are traditional cottage and perennial garden focal points, grouping plants, and lovely edging! En masse, they act as low-growing groundcover and flowering living mulch anywhere in the sun garden!

  • Toothy Pink Petals & Plum Rings
  • Spring to Fall Blooms With A Spicy Carnation Scent
  • Blue-Green Foliage
  • Low-Growing Mounded Form
  • Rock & Crevice Gardens, Containers, Edging & Groundcover

#ProPlantTips for Care:

Dianthus, aka Garden Pinks, need full sun and sharply drained soils to do their best. Provide enough water to establish, and then only supplemental moisture in extreme conditions. A 3-4 inch layer of arborist mulch helps in the hottest climates and coldest winters by adding insulation. Deadhead after blooms fade, and prune mounds in late winter or early spring to clean the mounds of dead foliage.

  • Full Sun
  • Very Well-Drained Soils
  • Moderate to Low Moisture
  • Deadhead After Flowering & Prune Early Spring
  • Deer Resistant

Pretty Garden Pinks, the EverBloom™ Plum Glory Dianthus will be your garden and pollinator's favorite new bloom! Order scented space-saving perennials today from NatureHills.com!
