Dianthus from wild collected seed.
« on: July 04, 2014, 08:22:22 PM »
I grew this from seed from one of the Czech collectors.
I don't know where it was collected.
It's in a 3 inch pot and was sown this Spring. All of the seedlings are the same.

I don't know it at all but it looks like one of the barbatus group with those multiple heads, a nice one being shortish and with a relatively large flower for the size of the plant.
