Pink 'Raspberry Ruffles', Raspberry Ruffles Pink, Fruit Punch Series, PP30073 CPBRAF
Dianthus ‘Raspberry Ruffles’ (Pink) is a charming evergreen perennial with masses of sweetly scented, fully double, carnation-like, raspberry pink flowers, adorned with serrated petals framed by thin white edges. Blooming in early summer and early fall, the large blossoms, almost 2 in. across (5 cm), rise above a low mound of grassy, blue-green leaves. This pink selection maintains its raspberry pink color throughout its bloom season and does not fade. Easy to grow, and heat and humidity tolerant, this 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. Dianthus ‘Raspberry Ruffles’ belongs to the Fruit Punch series.
