Cherry Magic Dianthus - Garden BedCorona Cherry Magic Dianthus

2003 All-America Selections Winner
& Fleuroselect Quality Mark Winner

Cherry Magic Dianthus - Close-upThese compact, extra-early blooming plants are ideal for the garden or pots. Plants in full bloom make nice indoor color accents for up to two weeks before you plant them outside. Once outside you will delight in this annual as it provides color throughout the growing season.

Corona Cherry Magic grows 7-9" tall, and spread from 8-10" across making these sun-lovers great for mass planting in flower beds.

While much of the information in these tips is applicable in several gardening zones/climates, some of the plants and timing suggested are best suited to the Northwest, generally in the mild/wet growing regions found along the I-5 corridor. You should make appropriate adjustments or consult local gardening experts in regions whose climates differ from this area of the Northwest.
