Star™ Starburst Pinks (Dianthus 'Starburst') is a compact ornamental perennial admired for its striking, two-toned flowers, fringed petals, and attractive blue-green foliage. Its distinctive blooms feature shades of pink and deep reddish-pink with contrasting patterns, creating a colorful display in garden borders, rock gardens, and decorative outdoor containers.

This flowering dianthus develops a tidy, low-growing, mounding habit with narrow, grass-like leaves. Fragrant flowers typically appear from late spring into early summer, with additional blooms possible under favorable growing conditions. Its compact form makes it suitable for garden edging, cottage gardens, small landscapes, and pollinator-friendly planting areas.

You will receive one live Star Starburst Pinks Dianthus plant in a 1 gallon nursery pot. The actual plant size, foliage density, branching, and flowering condition may vary depending on the season and nursery growing conditions.

Starburst Pinks prefers full sun and well-drained soil. Its fine-textured foliage and colorful flowers provide ornamental interest in sunny gardens and mixed perennial plantings.
