Add a Splash of Elegance with Dianthus Seeds

 

If you're looking to bring both beauty and fragrance into your garden, dianthus seeds is a stunning choice. Known for its delicate, frilled petals and a soft clove-like scent, dianthus (also called “pinks” or carnations) is a favorite among gardeners for its long season of bloom and versatile growing conditions.

Sun & Soil: These flowers thrive in full sunlight — give them at least 6 hours of direct sun daily. They prefer soil that drains well; soggy soil can lead to root or crown rot, so mix in compost or grit if needed. Slightly alkaline to neutral soil pH is ideal, and adding organic matter can boost flowering.

Sowing Seeds: Start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before frost, or sow directly in spring. Press them lightly into moist soil and keep the surface just damp — they don’t need deep covering. Under good conditions, germination happens in about a week or two.

Growing On: Once seedlings are established, transplant them with good spacing. Water moderately and evenly; dianthus doesn’t like to stay waterlogged. Feed lightly every few weeks, and remove spent blooms to encourage more flowers. Regular pruning helps keep plants compact and bushy.

Long-Term Care: If you’re growing perennial types, dividing every few years helps refresh the plant. It also reduces risk of crown rot. Deadheading faded flowers not only looks neater but also encourages a second flush of blooms.
