Sweet™ Mixture Dianthus

Sweet™ Mixture is a Dianthus barbatus Sweet F1 blend for gardeners who want several flower colors in one planting. Its included forms are black cherry, purple-and-white bicolor, and white, so the mix produces a varied display rather than a single uniform color. ## Garden Use The [Ball Seed plant profile](https://info.ballseed.com/PlantInfo/?phid=022502007003332) names the Sweet™ Mixture and lists those included color forms. It describes fragrant, rounded clusters on strong, upright stems and identifies the series for both garden performance and cut flowers. Its Sweet-series profile lists early spring, spring, autumn, and winter production periods; outdoor timing depends on local conditions. ## Site and Care Allow about 18–36 inches of height and 10–12 inches of width. The profile lists partial sun to sun and hardiness zones 6a–8b. Use a well-drained site and water in response to weather and soil conditions. ## Maintenance Remove faded flower stems to keep the planting neat. The mixture’s color balance can vary from plant to plant, which is part of its mixed display.
