CHILI EARLY BIRD DIANTHUS

With a bitter winter behind us, we welcome a new season with one of our favorite spring-blooming perennials! These re-blooming flowers give us that color we’ve been waiting for each spring. Early Bird begins it’s show just as the weather starts to warm and keeps on blooming through autumn, if deadheaded regularly. Blooms all stand tall above its grassy, blue-green foliage with sturdy stems. These bold, coral double blossoms will simply sparkle in borders, beds, patio pots and window boxes. Its fragrant blooms are also ideal for cut flower bouquets so you can enjoy spring indoors as well as out. Early Bird prefers full sun and well drained soil. So get your spring started in style with this beloved plant!
