Dianthus sylvestris Wood Pink
This is quite a variable plant with fragrant, deep or very pale, pink flowers and with some small and some medium sized plants. The blooms themselves are large enough for this to be a perfectly acceptable garden plant. It will grow in the lowland and to heights of 6,000 metres.
D. sylvestris is also found in the Cevennes, northern Pyrenees, Jura, and the Apennines.
