Re:
A perfect shape Sam some are really ruffly, Mrs Simpkins very scented but so bedraggled that I have to reject her enchanted features.

Re: CC
Thank you Justi Sweet Williams, are quite resilient evidently. You could probably grow Dianthus but you have your lovely lilies and probably not much time.

I loved the beautiful flower. I also enjoyed the information it was really helpful. I have Sweet Williams they are an old plant here my mother grew them and my grandmother did too. I love your beautiful flowers.

Re: What's this flower called corncrake?
You see Ms these are pinks that I show they are a variety of the dianthus family carnations are usually larger and mostly grown for those bunches you see in a florists window. A lot come from Columbia for the English market. A man called Allwood introduced cottage garden carnations which were a cross between pinks and carnations. Most plants have been derived from a few old species which were probably grown by nobility for prestige. Of course seeds sometime produce a new variety and a sport may occur occasionally I suspect your location is rather warm and if so It might be a job to keep this flower for a long period. I expect there are seed companies who always provide a catalogue. just tap in seed companies you will get hundreds trying to sell you seeds. I was going to try to send a lady in America some young pink plants, but the only one I could honestly recommend does not export young cuttings as they are quite time sensitive and also I suspect they are protecting their licence which forbids propagation from most of these. I don't know if they do seeds, but I could look it up if you like, although I think it would be hard work to grow them. If you have Sweet Williams they are a form of dianthus. Please always ask if you want more information. I would type in garden flowers and see what turns up.
