Description
"Dianthus" by Orchidmask
valued moody much maligned
for giving when it wants
sometimes not at all
leave me waiting
hoping even
for your show
sometimes never showing me at all
sweet william
surprise yourself
chartreuse your stem
as eyes betrayed
red your bloom
as blood
from the heart of my wishes
maybe in time
maybe today
maybe never
There are numerous types of dianthus, so there's one for almost any garden situation. Many types have flowers with a fragrant, spicy scent and notched petals. Common dianthus include Sweet William, pinks, and carnations.
Most dianthus have pink, red, or white flowers with notched petals. Sweet Williams are biennial or short-lived perennials covered with bicolor flowers in late spring. Pinks are low-growing dianthus suitable for rock gardens. Carnations are taller and good for bouquets but tend to be less hardy than other dianthus.

So unusual for fall color- that achingly intense lavender is stunning against the blood reds and pink shadows.
