Dianthus Heart Attack, Dianthus barbatus 'Heart Attack', has very dark crimson red carnation like flowers that cover glossy, dark green foliage in early summer. These very deep crimson red flowers of 'Heart Attack' really make a statement up against the glossy, dark green, lance like foliage. When plants emerge in the spring, the foliage is dark red. Unlike other sweet william, 'Heart Attack' is a true perennial that just keeps coming back, better than ever! 'Heart Attack' may look delicate, but it's surprisingly resilient! It isn't fussy about soil provided the drainage is good, flourishing even in poor clay or sand. Very heat tolerant, it's also quite prepared for cold winters. It requires full sun to partial shade. Butterflies love the intense color, and it is a deer resistant plant.
