Caring for dianthus is simple and rewarding. Plant them in a sunny spot with well-drained soil—dianthus dislike overly wet roots, so raised beds or free-draining potting mix work well. Deadheading spent flowers encourages repeat blooms throughout the season and helps keep plants tidy. Clip back after the main flush of flowers to encourage fresh growth. Dianthus benefit from a light feed in spring and autumn, but otherwise, they’re low maintenance and drought-tolerant once established.
