EverBloom Watermelon Ice Dianthus

This variety is a prolific bloomer, producing its watermelon-pink flowers continuously from late spring all the way through fall. It is specifically bred to be a rebloomer, so you can expect consistent color throughout the growing season.

Yes, this Dianthus is hardy in zones 4 through 9. It is quite resilient, though in very cold climates, you may want to ensure it is planted in well-drained soil to prevent root rot during the winter thaw.

While no plant is completely deer-proof, this Dianthus is considered deer resistant. Its texture and scent are generally unappealing to deer, making it a reliable choice for landscapes where browsing animals are a concern.

It is an excellent candidate for containers. Its compact, low-growing habit and tidy mound shape make it perfect for edging, rock gardens, or pots on a patio.

It is very low-maintenance. Once established, it is drought-tolerant and requires minimal supplemental watering, thriving best in full sun with well-drained soil.

The silvery-green foliage is evergreen in milder climates, providing year-round interest even when the plant is not in bloom.
