What are the best pruning techniques for healthy dianthus plants?
I’ve taken a keen interest in the plant ecology of my garden, particularly focusing on how to properly care for my dianthus. I've noticed that some varieties tend to get leggy and lose their vibrant blooms as the season progresses. I want to know if there are specific pruning techniques that can help invigorate my dianthus and promote a healthier growth habit. I’ve tried pinching back some stems, but I’m uncertain about how much I should be taking off and when the best time to prune would be. Can anyone provide advice on effective pruning methods for dianthus to ensure they stay healthy and produce blooms throughout the season? Thank you for your help! ✂️
