Well, I brought several of my potted annuals into the house. Dianthus was one of them.

They have been doing ok so far and today I cut them back. They had bloomed but got a little spindly under the lights so it was time for a trim. Needed to clean their "mess" up! All summer long I cut them back and they came back blooming even more.

Guess time will tell if I "done them in"! Or how well they will continue to do under the lights in my office! They will probably eventually go dormant or die.

So what are your plans for 2010 with dianthus?

I plan to grow these again and also sweet williams.
