| Sharon, is your Dianthus areniarus the same as the Snowdonia White that I got from you? If so, I must remember to plant it in a clump - yours looks great like that. I was really impressed with the size and scent of it BTW. Cmon gals let's see your D's! Don't be shy! |

| I'm not sure what species you got there Gil, do you still have the package? I can't even remember where I got that 'Snowdonia' package of seed? Are you sure its spelled Snowdonia, I googled but not much information is popping up? |

| I've seen the Snowdonia white dianthus advertised in one of the on line catalogs, but a person doesnt get the full impact of them with just a close up of a bloom.. Sharon your clump of dianthus arenarius is lovely.

| Yup it was Dianthus 'Snowdonia White' from McKenzie (Select Premier Collection, ooh aah LOL). I just noticed on the back it is Dianthus superbus, so I guess it's not the same as yours anyways Sharon. It's a short-lived Zone 4 perennial that blooms the first year - so that might be why you gave the seeds to me?? Anyway I still have seeds but the plants stayed behind at the old house so I won't know this year if it survives the winters. Anyway the smell was very nice, a nice strong sweet carnation smell. BTW lookin good Savona and Sharon! Savona, the sun in that pic of the ditch lily looks so warm and bright... sigh. |

Gil and Savona, I'll send you some Dianthus arenarius seed, I think I have some left. Sharon |

| Yes, where have you been Sierra!!! Beautiful Dahlia's! |
|
| I decided that today was the day to make time to add some of mine. The dahlias are stunning. I honestly didn't realize that they were so pretty. Dianthus Spotted Cheddar Daylily Little Graplette Denia Lillium Dizzy OT Lillium Dianthus Raspberry Parfait
De Montarville Daylily Strawberry Candy That's it. Sharon, if you have lots of Dianthus arenarius seed, I'd really be interested. I've noticed that T&M has a coloured dianthus with fringy flowered petals. They are on my wish list. Shelley |
