Perennial Dianthus plumarius produces fragrant, edible flowers in shades of white, pink, purple, and bicolored notched petals, which sit atop grass-like blue-green foliage. This variety makes a wonderful border plant and cut flower. Its sweet and spicy scent attracts pollinators while being resistant to deer.
For growing, sow the seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before your last average frost date, pressing them into the soil but not covering them, as they need light to germinate. After your average last frost date, transplant the seedlings outdoors or directly sow the seeds 1-2 weeks after the last frost.
