Pink 'Coconut Punch', Coconut Punch Pink, Fruit Punch Series
Very compact and free flowering, Dianthus ‘Coconut Punch’ (Pink) is an eye-catching evergreen perennial with masses of fragrant, fully double, deep red flowers, up to 2 in. across (5 cm), adorned with white markings in the center of each petal. As the flowers mature, the white markings expand and the red color lightens, leaving a wine colored ring around each petal. Blooming in early summer and early fall (with regular deadheading), the large blossoms rise on non-flopping stems above a low mound of grassy, silver-blue leaves. Easy to grow, and perfect for adding a splash of color in the garden, this Garden Pink is an excellent addition to the sunny border, rock garden or containers. Splendid as cut flowers too!
