How to care for Dianthus Bridal Star ('WP18 CAS06') (PBR):
Dianthus prefers soils enriched with well-rotted manure or garden compost, and an application of a balanced fertiliser in spring. They should be trimmed back lightly after flowering to promote new growth at the base of plant. Prune more closely in spring, as new shoots emerge to maintain a tidy shape.
Please note:
This perennial is semi-evergreen so it can lose some of its leaves in winter. In colder regions or more exposed gardens, it may lose them all, but then fresh new growth appears again in spring.
