[ Dianthus Promotionalâ„¢ Silver Star | Posted on June 10, 2016 ] Silvery blue-green foliage is 3-6 inches high. Double white flowers are marked on the center with maroon and bloom from spring to first frost. This variety is quite fragrant. The scent is a bit smoother than that of the species, rich clove side with a vanilla undertone. Flower stalks can be quite tall, 12-16", and therefore prone to drooping. Try planting in a container and let the stalks hang over the edges. It creates a beautiful fullness as the bond cascades over the side. |
