Pink 'Constant Beauty 'Crush Pink', Constant Beauty Series
Bred for increased tolerance of heat and humidity, Dianthus Constant Beauty ‘Crush Pink’ (Pink) is an evergreen perennial with masses of sweetly scented, semi-double, carnation-like, pink flowers adorned with bright burgundy edges. Blooming from late spring through fall, with deadheading, the large two-toned blossoms are held above a tight, compact mound of grassy, blue-green leaves. Easy to grow, heat and humidity tolerant, this re-blooming garden pink is perfect for adding a splash of color to the garden. It is an excellent addition to the front of sunny borders, rock gardens, or decorative containers. The foliage remains evergreen in all but the coldest winters.
