Dianthus turkestanicus |
|
Fast-growing, mat-forming perennial with typical fringed white/violet flowers on stems above the blue-green foliage. It lived into a second year and displayed its flowers in mid-May, but didn't impress. Fortunately, they were much fuller and more floriferous in following years. The photo at top shows a fourth-year plant.
