watering

This plant species should be watered regularly, but not overly. Water about once a week, making sure the soil is damp but not soggy. Water until enough runoff starts to occur. When temperatures are warmer, water more frequently to prevent dryness. Avoid getting water on the foliage, as this can cause disease and discolouration. The soil should feel slightly damp to the touch before applying more water.

sunlight

Pink (Dianthus Bouquet Rose Magic) plants love at least 8-10 hours of direct sunlight per day. If they are kept in bright but indirect light during the remainder of the day, they will do well. During peak summer months, try to give this plant 12 hours of sun each day. In the wintertime when daylight is shorter, they should still receive as much sun as possible. If more than 12 hours of sun is available in the summer, try to space out the sunlite and give the plant rest periods with indirect light.

pruning

For the Pink Dianthus Bouquet Rose Magic plant species, pruning should be done lightly throughout the growing season. Pruning should be done when the plant begins to look straggly or leggy, removing a few inches off the tips of the stems. This will encourage fuller growth and more blossoms. During the winter months, a more aggressive pruning can be done to remove dead or damaged stems and cut back foliage to the desired height. This will help the plant to become more bushier with new growth in the spring.
