Dianthus fragrans

D. fragrans. This wild Pink, like so many of its family, has an untidy growth which is not commendable. It sprawls over the rock or stone against which it is placed, and is impossible in the mixed border. In spite of this it has a certain prettiness which cannot be overlooked, and its sprawling stems are not so apparent when the plant is in the wall with other things near to it. The stems are from nine inches to twelve inches high, generally bearing only one flower, but sometimes a second one appears on a short axillary peduncle ; the flowers are pure white with finely toothed petals, and appear in July.

The double variety we noticed one summer in the interesting collection of Pinks in the nursery of Mr. Charles Turner of Slough. It is more compact than the type, and its white flowers are perfect little rosettes. D. fragrans comes from the Caucasus.
