What is Dianthus Chinensis?
Dianthus chinensis, commonly known as China Pink, is a beloved flowering plant native to Northern China, Korea, Mongolia, and Southeastern Russia. This charming plant belongs to the Dianthus genus and is a proud member of the Caryophyllaceae family. China Pink is celebrated for its vibrant, flat, single flowers adorned with heavily fringed petals and a striking dark central eye. The blossoms, which come in shades of white, pink, or red, create a stunning contrast against the lush greenery of your garden, making it a delightful addition to any floral display.
 
Growing Conditions for China Pink
China Pinks are biennials or short-lived perennials that thrive in cool summers and are not fond of heat and humidity. To grow China Pinks successfully, choose a location with full to partial sunlight and ensure the soil is well-draining with a slightly gritty texture. The ideal soil pH ranges from 6.0 to 7.5. Enrich the planting site by incorporating two to three inches of well-rotted compost or aged manure to a depth of 12 inches. It’s crucial to maintain free-flowing drainage to prevent crown rot, so consider adding a shovelful of grit, such as landscape sand or pea gravel, before planting. With these conditions, your China Pinks will flourish, adding a burst of color to your garden.
