Dianthus cruentus

Buy 1 for $14.00 / Buy 5 for $60.00

Native to the Balkans and Turkey, Dianthus cruentus thrives in poor, well drained soil in full sun. Grass like foliage supports the deep blood-red flowers which are held high on thin wiry stems. We have this 'blood carnation' in our gravel garden but it would be equally striking planted amongst ornamental grasses on wild meadow-like gardens. 60cm high x 20cm wide.
