Floral Lace Light Pink Pinks

Floral Lace Light Pink is a named selection in the early-flowering Floral Lace series, known for abundant blooms and finely serrated, lacy petals. Its soft pink color and compact garden size make it useful at the front of a border or in smaller seasonal plantings. ## Appearance and placement A grower’s account identifies Light Pink by name and describes Floral Lace as a large-flowered Dianthus chinensis × barbatus series that stays neat and tidy. PanAmerican Seed’s current series listing gives a garden height of 8–10 inches and a spread of about 8 inches, with flowers up to 1.5 inches across. The restrained footprint leaves room for neighboring annuals and low perennials.

Use it where the flower detail can be seen close up, such as a path edge or the front of a mixed border. ## Maintenance Remove spent flowers as the display fades and keep the planting clear of debris. Check the soil between waterings so the compact root zone does not sit in persistently wet conditions.
