Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Dianthus Fruit Punch 'Raspberry Ruffles' produces large, fully double, raspberry pink blossoms with serrated edges and a thin white to pale pink edge. 'Raspberry Ruffles' maintains its raspberry pink colour throughout its bloom season and does not fade. Blue-green foliage and sweet fragrance complete the performance. Plant at the front of the border, in containers, in rock gardens, and in other sunny sites. Shear after their spring bloom to encourage a fall rebloom.
