Plant description
Crimson-flecked, sugar pink petals with an irregularly toothed margin, form exquisite flowers with a strong scent. They appear in abundance over a long period, topping stout stems that rise above the clumps of grey-green foliage. Perfect for pots (particularly near seating areas where you can appreciate their scent), or front of border positions.

How to care for Dianthus Moulin Rouge (PBR):
Trim back lightly after flowering to promote new basal growth, and then in spring, as new shoots start to emerge, prune more closely 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.
