This Dianthus? suddenly appeared in a wild corner in my Garden.
Any idea, what it could be?
greetings

It is a Sweet William, Dianthus barbatus. Annual, biennial or short-lived perennial if it likes you. They do tend to self-seed around. Many forms have a lovely scent.

Thanks for the information.
Must have come from neighborhood and my garden has liked the plant :-)
It grows between Dactylorhiza fuchsii :-)
