Description: Dianthus Alwoodii Alpinus- Alwood pink. Common name, Carnation. In the 1920’s Montague Alwood created this tough little hybrid. Genus name comes from the Greek words dios meaning divine and anthos meaning flower.

They have diverse uses and can be grown in rock gardens, containers, and used as borders, and can be cut for floral arrangements. They thrive well in hot dry weather in soil with adequate drainage. These cuties self sow and will spread if desired. If not then deadhead and they will be in constant bloom throughout the summer.

All seed are NOT alike! There are so many different factors in germination and not doing a search is throwing your money away. I want everyone to be successful when growing your flowers from seed it is the most rewarding experience in Gardening and you can do it, if you give the seed what it needs to grow. I always check 3 sites of info to choose how I will go about it. It is not hard to do, if you do it right! SEED GERMINATION TIP!!!!!!! ONLY GERMINATE A SMALL PORTION AT A TIME. DON'T PUT ALL YOUR MONKEYS IN A BARREL. Good Luck and Happy Planting!!!!
