White+Eye Dianthus is a compact mat-forming evergreen perennial with dark green foliage and hairy stems. Small fragrant double white flowers with lilac-pink eyes and frilled edges bloom first in late spring into summer, and again in fall if deadheaded. Blooms best in full sun and slightly alkaline, moist, and well-drained soil.
