I know that we have some really talented botanists in the Virily community. In the past, some really gifted writers here were as fast as lightning with names of rare and unusual flowers and plants. But, do you know the name of this flower. It was included in a mixed batch of mainly ground covers, ie. Snap-Dragons, etc.

We call this plain carnation flower. They grow in our gardens.
They are about the size of your thumb Vidocka, maybe just a tiny bit bigger.
I do know what they are. It is called Dianthus, it is native to Asia and Europe. We use them in flower decorations, as the flowers last a long time after being cut. It is a filler flower for bouquets.
Amazing! Kim, I really did not know the name of this one. Thank you for sharing the information on this page.
Beautiful wild flowers. When I was in Lithuania, I used to collect wild grass because they have beautiful flowers. unfortunately even if they are wild and grass they don’t grow here in the tropics.
