Constant Cadence® Cherry - Dianthus

Constant Cadence® Cherry is a compact, low-growing dianthus from Green Fuse Botanicals' double-flowered Constant Cadence series. The [breeder lists Cherry](https://green-fuse.com/new/dianthus-constant-cadence/) as a named selection in its Dianthus hybrid series, and its cherry-red flowers bring color from spring into fall. ## Siting Grow in a sunny position with well-drained soil. The [2025–26 product catalog](https://www.carlinsales.com/media/1959/get_catalog-2025web.pdf) gives a garden height of about 6–8 inches; an exact product listing reports a broader 18–24 inch spread, so leave room for the clump to widen. The breeder describes Constant Cadence as a uniform series of double-flowered selections; the [listing for Cherry](https://www.gardencentermarketing.com/plantName/Dianthus-Constant-Cadence-Cherry) identifies its cherry flower color and fragrance. ## Maintenance Remove faded flower heads to keep the plant tidy and encourage continued flowering. [UF/IFAS Dianthus guidance](https://gardeningsolutions.ifas.ufl.edu/plants/ornamentals/dianthus/) recommends deadheading as blooms fade and avoiding wet conditions around the plant.
