Registration of Dianthus

Search the RHS website

 

 

The RHS is the International Registration Authority for Dianthus, including all types of carnations and pinks. A list of cultivar names was published in The International Dianthus Register, and it is kept up-to-date with regular supplements. As well as names, these publications include wherever possible a brief description, parentage, date of raising and classification for each cultivar. These publications are available from the mail order department of RHS Enterprises at Wisley.
