Dianthus Pink Fire
Double pink blooms. Does not flop!
Named after a fiery, red-headed professional volleyball player from Israel, Pink Fire lives up to its namesake with enormous, fully double, fiery pink carnation flowers that emerge from a steely-blue base of foliage. The large flowers do not flop but are help strong and high by the stems. A sport of the ever famous 'Firewitch', this plant has many similar, yet improved qualities - with a super strong clove fragrance to entice even the shyest gardener to come closer.
