Dianthus is the botanical name of a great group of flowers that includes wild Sweet William, the pinks, and of course, the carnations. Some of the pinks have been in gardens since Elizabethan times, and of today the carnation is a mainstay of the florist trade. Dianthus species are not at all hard to grow, and once they're happy in your garden, they'll return every year with more and more color and fragrance.
Seeds? Yes, we have the meadow favorite, Wild Sweet William (Dianthus barbatus) in our wildflower seed department. It's a favorite biennial that creates waves of magnificent colors (several colors and bicolors) in wildflower meadows. And its a snap to grow.

"Small but living"
"It has been a bit slow to grow - compared to the existing dianthus we already had."
"When this plant arrived it was in beautiful shape. It settled into its new home very well. It Immediately started spreading and blooming. It bloomed from May through October. I never did deadhead any of the blooms, but it still put on quite the show! We had a very hot and dry summer here in Maine. The foliage remained green and the red blooms were vibrant all season long."
"I purchased one to see how it would do in a container on my balcony. It flourished! It is so beautiful. Not much for fragrance but still smells good. Perfect for containers or border areas. Blooms like a champ. I will definitely buy more in the Spring!"
"Shipping was amazing and everything came in healthy and beautiful. Thanks!"
"This did great on my roof garden. The were so pretty and fragrant (although never had quite as many blooms as the picture). They bloomed for a long time too, with regular deadheading. No real pest problems. I hope they survive the winter. I might get more even if they don't."
