Peach Dianthus is a compact mat-forming evergreen perennial with dark grey green foliage and hairy stems. Clusters of fragrant, double hot peachy pink flowers bloom first in late spring into summer, and again in fall if deadheaded. Blooms best in full sun and slightly alkaline, moist, and well-drained soil.
