Constant Cadence® Salmon - Dianthus

Constant Cadence® Salmon is a compact dianthus with salmon-pink, double flowers that continue from late spring into fall. [Green Fuse Botanicals’ series page](https://green-fuse.com/new/dianthus-constant-cadence/) identifies Constant Cadence® as a dianthus series, and [SheyWest](https://www.sheywest.com/products/dianthus-salmon-1) identifies this selection as code DCASA07-0 and reports a height of 7–12 inches with width under 12 inches. [Wasco Nursery](https://www.wasconursery.com/constant-cadence-salmon-pinks/) gives a larger average landscape estimate of about 8–10 inches tall by 14 inches wide; the width reports differ, so treat them as source-specific estimates and allow extra room if following Wasco’s landscape size. ## Garden Use Use this low mound at the front of a sunny border, as edging, in a rock garden, or in a container. Its scented flowers also work as short stems for small arrangements; Wasco Nursery reports visits from bees and butterflies. ## Growing Conditions Plant in full sun and well-drained soil. Keep new plants evenly watered through establishment, then water during prolonged dry periods; containers may need more frequent checks. Good drainage matters more than heavy feeding. ## Maintenance Remove spent stems for a tidier plant and to support continued flowering. [SheyWest’s selection page](https://www.sheywest.com/products/dianthus-salmon-1) supports the code, flower color, bloom timing, size range, and hardiness; [Wasco Nursery’s landscape notes](https://www.wasconursery.com/constant-cadence-salmon-pinks/) support fragrance and garden use; [Wisconsin Extension](https://hort.extension.wisc.edu/articles/dianthus-gratianopolitanus-firewitch/) provides general dianthus guidance on drainage, sunlight, and container care.
