Set 3 or 6 Large Plants - Dianthus Pink Kisses, Ready to Plant in Your Garden
A charming collection of award-winning Dianthus plants, celebrated for their masses of beautifully scented blooms, compact growth habit and exceptionally long flowering season, perfect for patio pots, containers, borders and thoughtful garden gifts.
Dianthus 'Pink Kisses' is one of the UK's most popular flowering plants, producing an abundance of distinctive two-tone blooms in soft pink shades with deeper rose centres. Flowering continuously from spring through autumn, these compact plants form neat mounds of attractive blue-green foliage topped with clusters of fragrant flowers that attract bees and other pollinators. Reaching approximately 20–30 cm tall and wide, they are ideal for containers, window boxes, edging borders and creating colourful seasonal displays. Their long flowering period and sweet clove-like fragrance make them a favourite among gardeners of all experience levels.
Our Dianthus plants are professionally grown in high-quality peat-free compost and freshly delivered directly from our UK nursery in Yorkshire, in plastic-free, giftable packaging. Supplied as strong, well-established plants in 10.5 cm pots, they feature healthy root systems and vigorous growth, allowing them to establish quickly and provide months of continuous colour and fragrance.
