This seed raised variety comes in shades of light to dark pink. No colour selection guaranteed. Suitable for rock gardens as they form compact mats of foliage with lovely fragrant blooms.

Strongly clove scented.

Height 8".

Position: They grow into clumps and like a sunny well drained spot. Feeding is essential and our slow-release fertiliser (found in the Gardening Aids section) is ideal. Simply scatter the granules around the area where the pinks are planted and every time it rains or you water them the feed slowly releases into the soil. Regular dead heading is recommended. They have a relatively short flowering season consisting of mainly June & July. They can be more temperamental to over-watering than more modern varieties but we find that each one has a certain charm and we thoroughly recommend growing them.
