#ProPlantTips for Care

They need at least 6 hours of sunlight a day to flower their best. Well-drained soil is also a must. Create a raised bed if your soil stays soggy long after a rain event.

Tidy them up with a quick trim using garden snips. It takes hardly any time, and the rewards of saturated pink blooms are certainly worth it.

Plan to give them an organic, slow-release fertilizer formulated for flowering plants twice a year. Apply in early spring, and again in mid-summer.

Please take care when applying nitrogen-rich lawn fertilizer near your flowering plants. They will encourage foliage, not flowers.

In early spring, you'll trim down the past year's foliage to an inch above ground level. If they stayed evergreen in your climate, use a small garden rake to gently clean out fallen leaves and tidy things up.

For a massive display of incredible pink flowers, rely on Vivid™ Bright Light Dianthus. Make your season shine with these lovely plants.
