Dianthus Dart Red and White Picotee is a beautiful variety of dianthus (also known as pinks) featuring white petals with distinctive red edges or "picotee" margins. This compact perennial typically grows 8-12 inches tall and produces an abundance of these eye-catching blooms in late spring through summer. The flowers have the characteristic spicy, clove-like fragrance that dianthus is known for, and they're excellent for borders, rock gardens, containers, and cut flower arrangements.
