BENEFITS
'Rosish One' is another legacy from the lifework of the famous Fleming brothers of Lincoln, Neb., who contributed numerous cultivars of Dianthus and other species to the perennial market. It comes to the Blooms of Bressingham family of fine plants by way of the University of Nebraska.

Its unique flower color and tidy habit are sure to elicit praise from growers and gardeners alike. And despite its newness, the familiar Dianthus habit and spicy scent will bring old-fashioned, cottage-garden charm to any perennial border.

BLOOM SEASON & HABIT
'Rosish One' produces multi-layered flowers of mottled, velvety dark rose. The sculpted petal edges are delicately traced in white. Unlike some Dianthus, flowering persists throughout the summer and even into fall with a delightful fragrance. This introduction also gets high marks in our field trials for its silvery-grey foliage and its durability.
