'Corona Cherry Magic' dianthus (Dianthus 'Corona Cherry Magic') is a perennial for borders, containers, rock gardens, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to average, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. It blooms in early to late spring and again in early to late summer, and the fragrant flowers attract butterflies and bees.
