Bedazzled Dianthus is a compact mat-forming perennial with blue-grey grass-like foliage. The fragrant pink flowers with dark pink eyes bloom first in spring and can continue to intermediately bloom through summer if deadheaded. Best bloom in full sun and mostly alkaline, moist, and well-drained soil.
