Do Dianthus come back every year?

Dianthus are perennials so once established in your garden will flower year after year with the proper care, thriving in sunny spots and well-drained soil. The longevity of Dianthus makes it good value for your garden and its versatility for garden beds, borders, containers and as a cut flower is fabulous for novice or experienced gardeners. Deadheading spent blooms encourages an extended blooming period ensuring vibrant displays throughout the season. Kings Seeds’ Dianthus flower seeds provide hardy, resilient plants, perfect for creating lasting charm. With attention to watering and fertilising, these flowers reward gardeners with enduring colour and fragrance in outdoor spaces.


Where is the best place to plant Dianthus?

Dianthus thrives in sunny, well-drained locations, making it ideal for borders and or containers. These flowers flourish in soil enriched with organic matter, ensuring strong growth and vibrant blooms. Planting in areas with good airflow prevents moisture buildup, keeping plants healthy. Kings Seeds’ Dianthus flower seeds adapt well to various garden settings, offering versatility and elegance. 


Is Dianthus a sun or shade flower?

Dianthus prefers full sunlight, although it can tolerate partial shade in hotter climates. Six to eight hours of daily sun exposure ensures the healthiest growth and most vibrant flowers. Kings Seeds’ Dianthus flower seeds are perfectly suited to sunny conditions, delivering exceptional results in well-drained soil. While some shade during peak heat protects plants from stress, maximising sunlight ensures abundant blooms and robust growth. 


When to plant Dianthus in NZ?

Dianthus seeds are best sown in early spring to summer, around September to January. Starting seeds indoors during cooler months ensures successful establishment before transplanting to outdoor spaces. By timing planting around these seasons, gardeners maximise growth and enjoy extended blooming periods. With proper care, Dianthus create stunning, fragrant displays in gardens around New Zealand.
