Pinks (Dianthus caryophyllus) are the smaller, hardier relatives of carnations, with fragrant, densely petalled, colourful flowers. They form compact clumps, ideal for borders, rockeries and pots, and flower for a long period. The plant prefers sun and well-drained soils, and is hardy and easy to care for. The flowers have a sweet, spicy scent and attract butterflies. Pinks bring colour and fragrance to small gardens and path edges.
