Common problems and solutions
🌸 Not blooming
How to identify: Beautiful leaves but no flowers
Solution: Not enough sun! Move to a brighter location. Even a young plant takes time to start blooming.
🍂 Brown leaf edges
How to identify: The edges of the leaves dry out
Solution: Extreme dryness or strong wind. Water a little more in the hot summer and protect from winds.
🌱 "Spreading" plant
How to identify: Leaves fall to the sides
Solution: This is natural for a mature plant! You can divide it in half and replant it.
🐌 Snails
How to identify: holes in leaves, mucus trails
Solution: Remove manually or spread snail flakes around the plant.

💡 Pro tip
The dianthus looks great in a group planting! Plant 3-5 plants together at a distance of 50-60 cm to create a "sea" of graphic leaves. Perfect along paths, as a border in flower beds, or as a focal point in a modern garden. The flowers open in the morning and close in the evening - daily magic!
