Double trouble! The Star Double™ Starlette Dianthus (Dianthus 'Starlette') is a bright raspberry pink, double-petalled Garden Pink that features toothy jagged edges for curious texture and detailing! These bright blossoms stand on long slender stems and float above gray-green waxy foliage! For added contrast, the petals start dark in the centers and fade to lighter pink at the spiky tips!
Dianthus are classic garden edging and border plants and carry a delightfully spicy fragrance and are perfect for low garden color and interest, floral bouquets and texture for containers! The foliage looks great all growing season and grows dense enough to block weeds, making it a great groundcover.
Star Double™ Starlette blooms in the early spring and attracts thankful early-emerging pollinators in search of a snack! Deadhead after blooming finishes for a surprise rebloom later in the season. These are easy-care perennials and can sometimes remain evergreen in climates with mild winters in the hottest of USDA zones 5-9!
Planting and Application:
Starlette adds vivid bursts of juicy color throughout garden beds and borders as edging or eye-catching color! The contrasting cool-hued foliage helps these bright blossoms pop! Line a garden border or ring a large urn, planter or mailbox with hard-to-miss color.
Add these to pollinator gardens and rock gardens, cottage beds and perennial borders for neat and tidy focal points and edges. The smaller size and round, tidy form make Dianthus perfect in planters, patio pots, balcony containers and even in hanging baskets! Use as either an en masse specimen or as bright color and filler among other plants!
- Bright Colorful Raspberry Petals
- Double Blooms With Pointed Toothy Edges
- Soft Gray-Green Foliage
- Small & Tidy Mounds
- Containers, Garden Beds & Borders or Accent Perennials
#ProPlantTips for Care:
Dianthus loves full sun and can handle part sun too! Plant in any type of well-drained soil so long as it won't get soggy. Provide enough moisture while establishing and during a long drought. Deadhead after bloom to encourage a rebloom and clean mound in early spring.
- Full Sun & Part Shade
- Xeric Low Moisture Once Established
- Moderate Fertility & Not Particular on Soil Type
- Deadhead for Rebloom in Summer & Fall
