Dianthus Rockin' Red (Sweet William)
Dianthus Rockin' Red is a compact, bushy perennial that typically reaches up to 60cm in height, though it is frequently cultivated as an annual or biennial due to its short lifespan. This variety features dark green, narrowly lance-shaped leaves that provide an appealing contrast to the vibrant blooms. From late spring through summer, it produces dense clusters of dark red flowers distinguished by their lightly fragrant, fringed petals. Ideal for borders, containers, and rock gardens, Dianthus Rockin' Red adds a splash of intense colour and delicate scent, making it a valuable choice for gardeners seeking both visual impact and aromatic interest in their planting schemes.
