What soil pH is best for my dianthus to promote biodiversity?
I'm really focused on creating a biodiverse environment in my garden, which is located in a temperate region where the soil tends to be slightly acidic. I've been doing some research on dianthus varieties, but I'm unsure about the optimal soil pH for their growth and overall health. My garden setup includes a variety of native plants that attract different pollinators, and I want to ensure that my dianthus can thrive alongside them. I've tried amending the soil with organic compost, but I'm worried it might not be enough. Can anyone help me understand the ideal soil pH range for dianthus and how it affects not just their growth but also their ability to contribute to a biodiverse garden? Any tips on monitoring and adjusting soil pH would be greatly appreciated! 🌱
