watering

Water the Pink Dianthus 'WP05 Yves' Scent First Coconut Surprise plant regularly, but allow the soil to become mostly dry before each watering. Aim to water about once a week, making sure to thoroughly moisten the soil. Do not overwater, as excessive water can cause the plant to become soggy and rot. When the soil surface is dry to the touch, it's time to water again.

sunlight

The amount and timing of sunlight for the pink dianthus variety ‘WP05 Yves’ Scent First Coconut Surprise is 6 to 8 hours of direct, bright sunlight per day. Full, unobstructed sun is ideal for this plant species; however, it can also tolerate light, partial shade during the hottest hours. The plant should receive the full sunlight during the mornings and late afternoons. Avoid midday sun, when temperatures tend to be highest.

pruning

Pruning of the Pink Dianthus 'WP05 Yves' SCENT FIRST COCONUT SURPRISE should be done twice during the growing season - once in early spring and again in mid-summer. In spring, trim the entire plant down to about 5cm above the ground; this will help to promote healthy new growth and maintain a tidy, compact shape. In mid-summer, lightly trim any long stems; this will help to keep the plant looking neat and prevent it from becoming leggy. Avoid pruning too much or too often, as this could weaken the plant.
