Product description
This six pack of Dianthus Sweet William bedding plants are a beautiful addition to the garden, with the gorgeous shades of purple, pink and white giving it an eye-catching aspect to include within flower beds. The clustered way in which the flowers grow from late Spring ensures that the colours are offset effectively against the lush, green foliage of these plants. Below the pretty petals, stiff, upright stems are formed to hold the flowers up, maintaining their presence in amongst plant displays.
When planting these gorgeous garden perennials, moist, well-drained soil should be present, as well as good exposure to full sunlight when possible. To avoid the leaves turning yellow, only 1 inch of water should be given to the plant every week, as any more would make it overwatered.
Please Note: When purchasing plants please consider that each live item is unique and may, therefore, differ from the images shown, which are for illustration purposes only.

Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.

Instructions
Top Tip
Deadhead bedding plants regularly to encourage continuous blooms and prevent the plants from going to seed too quickly. This keeps your garden vibrant all season long.
How to Water
Water bedding plants deeply after planting, then regularly to keep soil evenly moist, especially during dry periods. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot. Water in the morning to allow leaves to dry and reduce the risk of fungal diseases.
How to Plant
Choose an area of good light with well-drained soil to loosen. Mix in compost for nutrients. Space plants evenly to allow growth. Gently remove plants from their packs, place in holes at the same depth as in the container, backfill with soil, and water thoroughly.
