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 White 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 White" 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.
