Dianthus × caryophyllus FLOW® ‘Bondi Beach&r...


Dwarf Hardy Carnation

USDA Zone: 5-9

Plant number: 1.180.970


The FLOW® series of pot carnations was bred to produce large flowers on a compact habit with uniform flowering. Blooms spring until late summer, and they are completely hardy. Plants form a neat mound of grassy foliage smothered with fully double flowers. This selection features bicolored salmon and cream flowers on short sturdy stems held above attractive green foliage. Added bonus of a wonderful spicy-clove fragrance. Excellent for containers, rock gardens and borders. Drought tolerant and easy to grow. Prefers well-drained soil in sun or part shade. Good drainage is essential for winter hardiness. Evergreen. Bred in The Netherlands.
