Dianthus Fruit Punch® ‘Cranberry Cocktail’ (Pinks)

Dianthus Fruit Punch® ‘Cranberry Cocktail’ brings vibrant color and delightful fragrance to the sunny garden. This compact perennial produces an abundance of double, carnation-like blooms in rich hot magenta pink, creating a striking contrast against its tidy mound of grey-green foliage. Blooming for several weeks—and often reblooming later in the season—this hardy variety adds cheerful color, texture, and fragrance to borders, pathways, and rock gardens.

Heat and drought tolerant once established, ‘Cranberry Cocktail’ thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. It’s also deer resistant, making it an easy-care choice for gardeners who want bold color with minimal fuss.
