Colour, fragrance & charm—festival dianthus light up any planting space.

With their sweet, clove-like scent and striking fringed petals, Dianthus Festival varieties are a true seasonal delight. Available in stunning shades such as White Flame, Deep Red, Violet, Violet Picotee, and Lilac, plus a mixed Growers Selection, they bring vibrant colour and texture to borders, patio pots, window boxes, and indoor arrangements. Whether you’re creating a bold single-colour display or mixing shades for variety, these versatile plants offer lasting visual appeal.

Each plant is grown peat-free at our Yorkshire nursery, supplied in a 10.5cm rootball, and delivered in 100% plastic-free packaging. With strong, established root systems and often arriving in bud or bloom, they’re ready to plant straight away for instant seasonal impact. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, their compact, bushy habit makes them ideal for small gardens, balconies, and container planting, while their fragrance and nectar-rich flowers attract pollinators.
