Dianthus Devon Cottage ‘Rosy Cheeks’
Dianthus 'Rosy Cheeks' is best grown with 'Fancy Knickers' for a flirty pink and white garden affair.
When you first read the name ‘Rosy Cheeks’ you might think of a pretty girl smiling with a pink flush to her cheeks. Until you realize another member of this series is called ‘Fancy Knickers’… Yes. Gardening can be sexy and titillating! ‘Rosy Cheeks’ has fragrant, double pink pom poms that can bloom all summer with a little deadheading. Nice evergreen bluish green foliage forms a great groundcovering mat. A selection from the Devon Cottage series.
