Pink 'Black And White Minstrels', Chinese Pink 'Black And White Minstrels', Indian Pink 'Black And White Minstrels'
Incredibly eye-catching, Dianthus chinensis heddewigii ‘Black And White Minstrels’ is a compact and free flowering Chinese Pink with quite unique, fully double, copiously laced, black and white flowers, 1 in. across (2.5 cm). Sweetly fragrant, their petal tips are heavily frilled, adding further charm to the display. Blooming throughout summer until frost, the striking blossoms rise above the grass-like, blue-green foliage. Easy to grow, and perfect for adding a splash of color in the garden, this tender perennial or hardy annual is an excellent addition to the sunny border, rock garden or containers. Splendid as cut flowers too!
