The deep, dramatic, scarlet-red Desmond Carnation is perfect in cut-flower arrangements and designs. 12-18'' spread. Dianthus ‘Desmond’

I ordered four of these, two of them with the "red garden pack," none of these fouor plants ever grew. All plantswere planted and watered with miracle grow within two days of receiving the shipment. Gorgeous picture, but I was very unsatisfied.
