Plant Guardians

Dianthus ‘Enid Burgoyne’


Description:
Recorded on the Dianthus register as being introduced pre-1995 it was purchased by our Plant Guardian in 2003 from Lydford Alpines where one of the partners previously worked for Joe Elliott of Broadwell Alpines, nr. Moreton in Marsh. Our earliest record for this plant dates from the RHS Plant Finder in 2000 where it was offered for sale by National Collection Holder M & S Hughes, Kingstone Cottage Plants who recorded that their original plant came from Sarah Franklin c. 1995.
