Cultivation:
The Flora Lace series was created by crossing Dianthus
chinensis, a prolific flowerer with Dianthus barbatus, a cold hardy
species. This exciting hybrid gives you another choice for planting right along side your
Pansies in early spring and in the fall.
Planting: Plant in full sun to light
shade in fertile well drained soil. Poor drainage is most often the cause
of plant failure.
Spacing: Space plants 6" to 8"
apart. Floral Lace Dianthus will grow to 6" to 8" tall.
Care: Feed every two weeks with a
balanced liquid fertilizer.
The experts say that you should not mulch
Dianthus with woods chips or any organic mulching as it tends to transmit
fungi to the plant.
