| Cultivation:
The Super Parfait series of Dianthus has a compact growth habit
that flowers earlier than other Dianthus varieties. Strawberry Super Parfait
grows equally well in patio pots or beds. Spent flowers should be
removed to promote new flower growth.
Plant Dianthus Strawberry Pink in full sun to light shade in fertile well drained soil.
Poor drainage is most often the cause of plant failure. Space
plants 8" 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.
