Planting & Care

1. Planting: Your Dianthus will perform best in full sun. Find a spot with well-drained soil and 6 to 8 hours of sunlight per day.

Plant your flowers in a hole twice as wide but as deep as the root ball. Water immediately to establish roots. For best results, add a 3-inch layer of mulch to prevent weeds.

If you're planting in a container, select a pot that's about twice the size of your plant's shipped container, and use organic soil. Place your Dianthus, water to settle its roots, and find a sunny spot on your porch or patio.

2. Watering: Water weekly, or check the surrounding soil. When the soil is dry about 3 inches down, it's time to water. If your Dianthus is container-planted, water until you see it flowing from the drainage holes at the bottom.
