Constant Cadence® Peach Milk - Dianthus

Constant Cadence® Peach Milk has double flowers that open peachy pink and turn white as they age, so fresh and older blooms create a two-tone display. It is a compact, mounding selection in Green Fuse Botanicals' Constant Cadence series, with spring and summer color, as described in the [breeder's series page](https://green-fuse.com/new/dianthus-constant-cadence/) and [cultivar catalog entry](https://www.perennialfavorites.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Perennial-Favorites-Catalog-2024.pdf). ## Siting Grow in full sun in well-drained soil. The named selection suits border edges, containers, and cut-flower use. Published mature dimensions vary by source; the evidence supports about 6–12 inches tall and 12–24 inches wide. [SiteOne](https://www.siteone.com/en/91255b-dianthus-x-constant-cadence-peach-milk-pinks/p/732564) lists compact growth and full sun, while the [Perennial Favorites catalog](https://www.perennialfavorites.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Perennial-Favorites-Catalog-2024.pdf) gives the broader spread range. Leave room for the mound to spread and avoid sites where water stands around the crown. ## Maintenance Remove faded flowers as they finish to keep the plant tidy and encourage further bloom. [UF/IFAS Dianthus guidance](https://gardeningsolutions.ifas.ufl.edu/plants/ornamentals/dianthus/) recommends deadheading faded flowers and avoiding wet conditions. Maintain open drainage around the crown.
