Title: Dianthus spec.
Post by: Catwheazle on June 04, 2019, 02:48:37 PM

Hi,
i found in my collection (for first flowering) Dianthus .... seems for me to be repens.
Seeds are probably from Bobo Ohlsen (chinesealpines.com): BO-14-096 or BO-15-114 from 2016 ???
(@ Bobo Ohlsen: if the seed is from your collection please PM me their origin. thx)

Please help !!... is repens correct ???
regards
B. Sommer

I don't think it can be from me, I've never seen anything like it in the Chinese wilderness - nor grown it here for that matter, summers are too hot... Here are the two numbers:

BO-14-096   Lilium henrici
BO-15-114   Lilium lophophorum

There might be Dianthus superbus growing not too far from the L. lophophorum, but nothing like this.
