pot pink

Product Image
A stunning semi-evergreen perennial, forming fragrant mounds of blue-green foliage. In summer, stiff stems arise bearing unique and strongly scented single blooms. Each flower opens with a pale pink ground before maturing to clean white, encircled by vibrant rings of reddish-pink, pink, and deep maroon. The ruffled petal edges and colourful collars around the white throats create an intriguing contrast. 'Cherry Daiquiri' is a sun-loving Dianthus that will perfume the garden with a medley of sweet and spicy tones while the slender grey foliage persists through mild winters to provide excellent texture.
