Tiny Rubies Dianthus is a dwarf mat-forming semi-evergreen perennial with grey green foliage and hairy stems. Masses of fragrant, brilliantly pink double flowers bloom first in late spring into summer, and again later in summer if deadheaded. Blooms best in full sun and slightly alkaline, moist, and well-drained soil.
