A new Dianthus plant named KLEDG19294 particularly distinguished by double flowers with a magenta flower color with a purple center, a maculated flower pattern and green leaf color, is disclosed.

A new and distinct cultivar of Dianthus plant named KonD1335K1, characterized by its uniformly mounding and upright to broadly spreading plant habit; dense and bushy appearance; freely and remontant flowering habit from early spring until the autumn; dark red-colored single flowers; vernalization treatment not required for flowering; and good container and garden performance.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a breeding method for a plant having a blue flower color with a simpler blue color development controlling technique, without requiring complex mechanisms for blue color development that have been previously presented and techniques reproducing such mechanisms. Delphinidin-based anthocyanins, in which the both 3 and 5-positions of the anthocyanin B-ring have been glycosylated, and flavone glycosides or flavonol glycosides as copigment are made to coexist in the cells of flower organ such as petals.

A new and distinct Dianthus cultivar named DCARE11-0 is disclosed, characterized by continuous flowering on floriferous plants hardy to USDA Zone 3. Flowers are semi-double and uniquely true red. The new variety is a Dianthus, typically produced as a garden or container plant.

A new and distinct cultivar of Carnation plant named Hilagas, characterized by its compact, upright to broadly spreading and uniformly mounding plant habit; freely branching habit; early and freely flowering habit; red-colored double flowers; and good container and garden performance.

A new and distinct Dianthus cultivar named DCAMC10-0 is disclosed, characterized by flowers that are white at first opening, turning pink within 24 hours then to a strong purplish red. Plants are floriferous, flower continuously and hardy to USDA Zone 3. The new variety is a Dianthus, typically produced as a garden or container plant.

A new and unique plant cultivar of perennial carnation or pinks, Dianthus plant named Kiss and Tell with numerous, medium-sized, semi-double, lightly-sweet, spicy, fragrant flowers producing a rounded semi-spherical face. The numerous stems cover top to bottom of clump on well-branched stems having up to 3 flowers per stem. Petals have small serrations in the margin and are colored faint pink with a broad dark-red band near the base of the petal limb. The habit is compact with dense blue-green foliage.

A new Dianthus plant particularly distinguished by pink flowers with a red-purple border, very early flowering, and an upright habit, is disclosed.

A new and distinct Dianthus cultivar named DDTSS12-0 is disclosed, characterized by unique bi-color double flowers. Plants bloom for an extended period into the Summer and are hardy to USDA Zone 5. The new variety is a Dianthus, typically produced as a garden or container plant.

A new and distinct cultivar of Carnation plant named Hilbechapell, characterized by its compact, upright to broadly spreading and uniformly mounding plant habit; freely branching habit; freely flowering habit; relatively large yellow green-colored double flowers; and good container and garden performance.
