detailed seed-starting info below

Looks like a pretty typical dianthus species with narrowly grassy leaves. We'll see how it distinguishes itself from similar species as the seedlings grow to maturity.

We left this plant behind in our Pennsylvania garden (and wish it well); we don't grow it in Houston.
