Dianthus - Raspberry Surprise
Dazzling white flowers have a bright red center and are suited to formal as well as informal borders and containers. The Dianthus come in annual and hardy varieties that are sure to bring a smile on your face in the early spring. They prefer the cooler weather but will sport their blooms in Oklahoma from early spring to early summer, and reappear in the fall!
