More About Neon Star Dianthus...Masses of fragrant, fluorescent bright pink flowers rise above and nearly cover the low, spreading mounds of silvery-blue evergreen foliage in spring. Flowers have a sweet, clove-like scent and will repeat if the first flush of flowers is deadheaded. Outstanding when planted in patches in garden beds, as a border along paths or walkways, and in rock gardens. Repeat bloomer with deadheading.
