Dianthus 'Letitia Wyatt'

Dianthus 'Letitia Wyatt' is a compact, mat-forming evergreen pink valued for its showy summer display held above neat, tufted foliage. It thrives in full sun and free-draining, neutral to alkaline soils, including light sandy or chalky ground, and is best kept out of winter-wet conditions. Ideal for the front of sunny borders, edging and containers in Irish gardens, forming clumps around 25–30cm tall and spreading with time.

To help give a clear sense of scale, the stone wall shown in our photos measures approximately 265cm in height. We also use familiar garden tools as visual references: a digging fork (110cm tall) and a hand fork (30cm tall). These are included purely as size guides to help you better judge proportions when viewing the images.
