Care Guide
- Give your garden ready plants a little attention on arrival - unpack them immediately, and either mist them or stand them in water for an hour - they may be slightly dry or yellow after being in a dark box in the post, but they’ll quickly recover. If you can’t do this, they can sit in Mini Greenhouses for a week if upright and not too wet.
We recommend that you leave them to settle for a day somewhere warm, light and airy such as a windowsill or greenhouse.
- Dianthus prefer light, well drained soil and full fun.
- When planting directly into flower beds, prepare the ground well, removing weeds and digging in some compost or well-rotted manure if your soil is not already rich.
- Plant about 30 cm (1 ft) apart to allow them room to grow. Feed using a high-potash feed such as Blooming
- Fast Superior Soluble Fertiliser for Flowers & Fruits, to encourage flowering.
