Our high-quality Cottage Pink seeds deliver stable germination rate and compact mounding growth. Botanically Dianthus plumarius, Cottage Pink is a traditional heirloom perennial famous for deeply fringed soft pink petals and distinctive spicy clove fragrance. Its slender blue-green evergreen leaves form neat low clumps, keeping tidy foliage appeal all year round.
Highly frost-resistant, this dianthus blooms heavily from late spring to early summer, and repeat flowering can be achieved by deadheading wilted blossoms. It is widely used for cottage garden styling, front border edging, rockery crevice planting, stone path lining and container potted decoration. Cottage Pink thrives in loose, well-drained slightly alkaline soil and suffers easily from root rot under waterlogged conditions. Only moderate watering and regular trimming of spent blooms are required, making it an ideal hassle-free option for landscape arrangement and beginner gardening.
