| Cultivation:
The Flora Lace series of Dianthus was created by crossing Dianthus
chinensis, a prolific flowerer... with Dianthus barbatus, a cold
hardy species. This exciting hybrid gives you another choice for
early season planting right along side your Pansies.
Plant Dianthus Floral Lace Violet in full sun to light shade in fertile well drained soil.
Poor drainage is most often the cause of plant failure. Space
plants 9" apart. Feed every
two weeks with a balanced liquid fertilizer. The
experts say that you should not mulch Dianthus with wood
chips or any organic mulching as it tends to transmit funguses to
the plant. "Floral Lace Violet" is very heat tolerant.
Available Colors: Cherry,
Crimson, Light Pink, Lilac, Picotee, Purple, Rose, Salmon, True
Rose, Violet, Violet Picotee, White, Mix, Hearts of Fire Mix,
Merlot Mix and Tutti Frutti.
