FREE: 50 Dianthus seeds

The listing, 50 Dianthus seeds has ended.

There is no disappointment with this wild flower seed! It is winter hardy to USDA Zones 3-9. This Dianthus Sweet William mix is a short-lived perennial wild

flower seed that is perhaps best grown as a biennial. Many of the new cultivars will bloom the first year from wild flower seed when the seed is started early

enough.
but generally appreciates some light afternoon shade in hot summer climates such as the South. In optimum growing conditions it will re-seed each year and

remain in the garden for many years as if it were a long-lived perennial. Prompt deadheading of spent flowers (shear back large plantings) promotes perennial

tendencies. Sow Sweet William seeds directly in the garden in prepared soil after danger of frost has passed. they grow very well where I live in the middle of

Michigan and I am sure they would do well just about anywhere. no one should pass up the chance to have these in there garden.

Happy bidding!
