Experience the joy of gardening with the Thompson and Morgan Dianthus Rainbow Loveliness Improved Mix Seeds. It presents a captivating option for those looking to enhance their garden or patio with attractive and distinctive blooms. Over years of careful selection, these flowers have developed deeply cut petals that create a soft, feathery look. Compact yet hardy, these Dianthus plants will quickly establish charming clumps, ideal for the front of borders or in containers, providing a low-maintenance display. Known for their striking pinks and inviting sweet fragrance, they are excellent choices for cut flowers in home arrangements. To cultivate these beauties, sow Dianthus seeds indoors from February to April on the surface of moist, lightly firmed seed compost in pots or trays. A fine layer of compost or vermiculite should be sprinkled on top, and it is essential to maintain a temperature between 18 and 20°C in a propagator or sealed container. Light is crucial for germination, which typically takes 14 to 30 days. Once seedlings are manageable, transplant them into 7.5cm pots and grow in cooler conditions, acclimatising gradually before planting outdoors after the last frost. When planting, space Dianthus 23cm apart in any fertile, well-drained soil in full sun, or alternatively, grow them in containers on a sunny patio. Supplied as a packet containing approximately 30 seeds, the mature plants can reach heights of up to 35cm and spread about 30cm. Growing and care instructions accompany the product. As with any plant, images are for guidance on expected results, while seasonal variations may impact appearance. The pack contains approximately 30 seeds.
