Dianthus Deltoides – Confetti Deep Red are easy to care for perennials that are ideal for the beginning gardener. These plants form a low, spreading mound of evergreen leaves that are bronzy, that are studded with tiny, starry flowers that are a deep-red color. They have a blooming season that ranges from late Spring to early Summer, grow best in full sun, will grow between 4 – 6 inches tall, and are also drought tolerant. This is a good choice for poor soils that are in hot, sunny sites. These flowers will attract pollinators to your garden such as Butterflies and Bees while being resistant to Deer and Rabbits. These do well in containers, in borders in the garden, can be used for edging, and also can act as a groundcover.

I urge anyone buying seed to do their homework on germination, I have not raised and cannot raise many of these plants as I am sub-tropics here in St Augustine,Florida. All seed are NOT alike! There are so many different factors in germination and not doing a search is throwing your money away. I want everyone to be successful when growing your flowers from seed it is the most rewarding experience in Gardening and you can do it, if you give the seed what it needs to grow. I always check 3 sites of info to choose how I will go about it. It is not hard to do, if you do it right!
SEED GERMINATION TIP!!!!!!!
ONLY GERMINATE A SMALL PORTION AT A TIME.
DON'T PUT ALL YOUR MONKEYS IN A BARREL.
Good Luck and Happy Planting!!!!
