Dianthus

[Karaba]

And lots of seeds to come 

I miss Dianthus arrosti (from Corsica), Dianthus pavonius (from Alps) and Dianthus superbus (from SRGC, ex-Norway, Hoy ?)

[Yann]

Yvain, Dianthus gyspergae is a nice dianthus, you're showing a nice set here.

It also seems your collection lacks the beauty from the Carpathians - D. petraeus

[Karaba]

Merci Yann 
D. gyspergae come right from Calanques of Piana where it is endemic. I am quite happy that the two cuttings that I took has rooted.

Yes Gabriela, nearly as beautiful as D. hyssopifolius    I nearly only have native Dianthus collected during my walks, but this is only a matter of occasion and I will accept the opportunity to welcome D. petraeus in my garden

D. hyssopifolius is my favourite from all that you showed Yvain, nearly as beautiful as petraeus 
I have two small clumps that usually don't set too many seeds, but you may get lucky who knows , or you may have to wait until I go on the mountain again.

Dianthus 'Eileen Lever'. This is a smashing little thing from Aberconwy that I picked up last year, not quite at its best yet. They had it growing in tufa which I might try too with some cuttings.

Dianthus squarrosus and Dianthus spiculifolius.

Dianthus haematocalyx ssp. haematocalyx from Mount Olympus in north Greece. This is Dianthus haematocalyx ssp. pindicola. From Mount Smolikas in the Pindus Mountains. 1960 meters. Northwest Greece.
And over again Dianthus callizonus from the southern Caucasus.

Beautiful and I envy you for being able to buy such treasures.
I would like to mention though that Dianthus callizonus is an endemic species from Romania in Piatra Craiului Massif (Carpathian Mts.), no relation with the Caucasus.

Dianthus callizonus is a favorite for me.  I have grown many....

You are right of course completely, Gabriela... I has prescribed me. Thanks for the correction. But the first letter was right.  Sorry for the mistake... Maybe because of the heat.  At other place I have already shown a photo, there I have properly described it. In the picture from yesterday one sees the interesting hairs of the blossoming very good.

Yeah, you're right, the first letter was right I assumed it was just a slip of the tongue, as the saying goes, but I wanted to make sure for the others reading who maybe don't know so well the plants like you do.
Would be great if the two of them would be closer so we can 'jump' from one to another.

I just noticed that the first picture has a wrong name. This is Dianthus haematocalyx ssp. pindicola. From Mount Smolikas in the Pindus Mountains. 1960 meters. Northwest Greece. She is with me in the area for Sempervivum and Saxifraga ... since I have not used any labels ... was perhaps a mistake ... I'm still just a beginner.

I found in my Dolomit-Stone-Garden a Dianthus spec. grown directly in the rock. This Dianthus survived this summer a dry period of 4 month and temperatures till 39 °C. In this time the plant developed flowers and produced seeds!
