Dianthus namaensis is an extremely hardy almost tufted evergreen perennial with narrow grey green leaves and masses of pale-yellow flowers. It has a long flowering season and is a sight to behold when in bloom. The flowers are carried well above the leaves and will nod in the slightest breeze.
It is on the Sanbi Red Data List as a species of "least concern", but it is found seldom enough to be part of their Threatened Species Programme.
Use in a border, in amongst rocks or in containers. Plant in sun in well-drained soil.
