Dümmen Orange is transitioning Dianthus production to its farm in Kenya for the North American sales region. This move will support the continued expansion of the company’s Dianthus portfolio, including product lines such as the Sprint series. Dianthus products supplied to the European market will continue to be sourced from the current production location, with no changes to how European customers receive their products.
Commercial shipments of unrooted cuttings from the Kenya facility are scheduled to begin in Week 40.
The Dümmen Orange Dianthus Sprint series features compact foliage with medium-sized, semi-double blooms. The varieties in the series are uniform in habit and available in a range of colors, suitable for use in combination plantings or as standalone programs. Sprint is a first-year flowering series, meaning it can be used in color programs during spring and summer.
The Berry Eyes series features playfully patterned, delightfully fragrant blooms that bring unique retail appeal. Being a Zone 5 hardy, first-year flowering perennial with exceptional bloom longevity, this is a versatile choice for spring programs, mixed containers and landscape sales.
Berry Eyes provide unique retail appeal.
Viva Magenta offers multitudes of velvety magenta blooms with a perfectly dainty appearance. Its tidy habit makes it an excellent option for early production to capture Valentine’s Day sales. Having Zone 5 hardiness ensures that it has outstanding performance as a spring perennial.
