Very compact and free flowering, Dianthus ‘Raspberry Swirl’ (Pink) is a charming evergreen perennial with masses of strongly scented, single, pale pink flowers adorned with a deep maroon picotee edge and eye. As they age, the petals fade to white and the picotee edges change to magenta. Blooming from late spring to mid-summer (or later with regular deadheading), the large blossoms rise on long, upright 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.
