🌱 Growing Tips for Dianthus

Whether you're starting your dianthus indoors for early spring transplanting or direct sowing in warmer regions, here are some tips for success:

  • Start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before last frost

  • Use a well-drained seed starting mix and provide light for germination

  • Transplant after the danger of frost has passed

  • Space plants 6–10 inches apart in full sun

  • Water regularly but avoid overwatering—dianthus prefers slightly dry conditions

  • Deadhead spent blooms for continuous flowering
