Dianthus 'Pink Kisses®'
Dianthus 'Pink Kisses®' is one of the most popular modern pinks, prized for its abundance of beautifully formed double flowers and exceptionally long flowering season. Each bloom opens in soft pink shades with a distinctive deep red eye at the centre, creating an attractive bicolour effect that stands out against the neat mound of silvery-grey foliage below. The flowers are lightly scented and produced in generous numbers from late spring through summer.
Compact and evergreen, this hardy perennial is perfectly suited to containers, window boxes, raised beds and the front of sunny borders. Its tidy habit makes it easy to incorporate into both traditional cottage garden schemes and contemporary planting designs, where it provides reliable colour and fragrance without becoming invasive or untidy.
Easy to grow and requiring very little maintenance, 'Pink Kisses®' performs best in a sunny position with well-drained soil. Regular deadheading encourages further flushes of flowers, helping to extend the display well into the season. Its drought tolerance once established and year-round foliage interest make it a valuable addition to gardens of all sizes.
