My Garden Fairy's Name
Your fairy is called Bramble Icefly
She is a bone chilling bringer of justice for the vulnerable.
She lives in leafy dells and bluebell glades.
She is only seen at midday under a quiet, cloudless sky.
She wears bluebell-blue dresses. She has icy blue butterfly wings.
Simple Joys...
- Pumpkin Pie
- Scent of a fireplace
- Fall leaves

Hi Sarah, Dianthus do so well in all gardens. These are the first pink I have ever had, I am just love them. Hope you find some good ones for your garden!
Happy Gardening!

I had a big patch for years; pass alongs from my grandma that kept coming back. I should go dig up some at my brother's house, I think he still has them. THey really give you a lot of bang for your buck!
Yes they do Nola! I need to divide these and put some in other places. I normally go with red, but this color sure is pretty!
