Dianthus Plant’s Care Instructions:

Water: Most kinds of carnations dislike dampness and manage well in dryness. That’s why they should only be watered moderately and not until the soil is almost completely dry. You can easily test that by pressing your thumb into the flower soil. If you can’t push it deeper than two centimetres, you can water the flower.

Light: Full Sun is important for thriving plants, so choose a location that gets at least six hours of light each day. It’s best to plan them early in the spring season. They will then be established before the hot summer weather.

Soil: Stem rot can be a problem in dianthus plants if the soil doesn’t drain well. If the soil is heavy clay, consider containers or raised beds for plants. Dianthus plants like neutral to slightly alkaline soil pH. If your soil pH is below 7.0, correct the acidity with an application of dolomitic limestone. Fireplace ashes can also increase the soil alkalinity. Mulch is fine to keep weeds under control, but to avoid rot, don’t let the mulch crowd around the crowns of dianthus.

Fertilizer: Dianthus plants are light feeders. A shovelful of compost worked into the soil once a year is enough to nourish the plants. Deadhead dianthus after flowering to promote rebloom.
