Dianthus plumarius 'Gran's Favourite'

Here's a pretty pink for a sunny morning GT'ers ☕️ Some say old fashioned but experts are trying to make them 'fashionable' again. Two things I find funny...plants are plants, I don't agree with any of them being in or out of fashion and since this one is new the name may not help in the fashion stakes! 😂 Anyways, I'm off to the Big Smoke, so have a beautiful day in your gardens 😊🌷🌱🌸

good morning Ellen, oh that is so en trend right now.... hehehe ;)

I like to think that I like plants for themselves rather than for if they are the current fashion or not. However, for some reason I get really annoyed when something I like becomes fashionable. Hopefully the 'experts' fail at making old pinks fashionable, I've just bought several!

Love these brilliant show too enjoy the 'big smoke' today @ellenmarygardening

I just bought one too... I just think they're lovely and the scent reminds me of my childhood

I love them , I just buy what I like , I don't believe 'fashion' and plants in the same sentence , rant over lol 😂

@ellenmarygardening have good day- I just buy what I like 😀I'm now off to work!

I love them.it comes down to making money I think.Am I a cynic?

I like pinks , if I like a plant then I'll buy it don't care wether it's fasionable or not

Well said! If you like it buy it. Give it a go. I grow lots of pinks in pots on my Brighton balcony. Hopefully I'll soon have some flowers to photograph for GT. Wish me luck!

Beautiful scent
