Dianthus Firewitch
Dianthus Firewitch is a compact, mat-forming perennial celebrated for its fragrant blooms and tidy, evergreen appearance. The blue-gray foliage forms a dense, low-growing mound, while fine, hairy stems add subtle texture throughout the season. Dianthus Firewitch is an excellent choice for edging, rock gardens, containers, and sunny borders where reliable color is desired.
In spring, Dianthus Firewitch bursts into a profusion of spicy-scented, magenta-pink flowers that rise above the foliage on short stems. With regular deadheading, Dianthus Firewitch can continue to bloom intermittently through fall, extending its seasonal interest. This perennial performs best in full sun and prefers slightly alkaline, moist, well-drained soil. Once established, Dianthus Firewitch is drought tolerant and low maintenance, making it a standout for pollinator-friendly and cottage-style gardens.
