Mountain Bluet, Bailey’s Gold, A Red Rose And A Dianthus

May 28, 2009

I have a few more photos of flowers for you. I have three identified, but am having some difficulty with the fourth.

I just found a website that helped me identify the Mountain Bluet. I already knew what the Bailey’s Gold was, along with the Rose. The last one is a little troubling. I have actually never seen this flower before. I am going to write a description of it below the photo in hopes that someone with know what it is and leave a comment.

Bailey’s Gold, Sedum floriferum, Weihenstephaner Gold

Red Knockout Rose


Dianthus barbatus – Pink flower with white specks and spiky green leaves

Mountain Bluet, Centaurea montana

As you can tell, it’s that last one I am having trouble with. I wrote down that it has pink flowers with white specks and spiky green leaves. It’s a pretty cool flower. I just wish I knew what it was.

UPDATE – I have learned that the last flower is a Dianthus barbatus. Thank you.

    Hi, Jay, I believe that may be part of the Dianthus family. I do love these plants as they bloom all summer and often come back year after year as a perennial even though I believe they are technically an annual.

    I’ve used them as border plants instead of Impatiens….

    Looks like a dianthus (carnation is in that family). Your flowers are beautiful. Isn’t Mother Nature fun?

    You are both very smart (as well as beautiful and lovely) ladies. Thank you for lending me your gardening experience.

    I did a little research and am going to go with the “Dianthus barbatus” because that’s the only Dianthus with those spiky leaves. Some of the others were close, but this one was the closest.

    I updated the photo above.
