    'Devon Arctic Star' from the Early Bird Series, is a compact, evergreen perennial with narrow grey-green leaves. Masses of fragrant, pure white double flowers with ragged edges are borne on short stems from mid-spring to summer. A firm favourite for cottage gardens, it will also flourish happily on the patio.

  • Garden care: Prefers soil enriched with well-rotted manure or garden compost and an application of a balanced fertiliser in spring. Dianthus should be trimmed back lightly after flowering to promote new basal growth. Prune more closely in spring, as new shoots emerge to maintain a tidy shape.
