Fruit Punch® ‘Whipped Cream’ Dianthus
Fruit Punch® ‘Whipped Cream’ Dianthus is a compact perennial featuring pure white, fragrant flowers that are larger than average for Dianthus. Its crisp white blooms stand beautifully against evergreen blue-green foliage, creating an attractive contrast in the garden. After its main bloom, intermittent reblooming provides additional color throughout the season.
Growing 8–10 inches tall and spreading 12–14 inches wide, ‘Whipped Cream’ forms a neat, mounded habit that is perfect for borders, edging, containers, and mass plantings. The fragrant flowers attract bees and butterflies and can also be enjoyed as fresh-cut or dried flowers.
Heat, drought, and salt tolerant, ‘Whipped Cream’ is an easy-care perennial that performs best in part sun to full sun with well-drained soil. Its evergreen foliage also provides valuable winter interest.
