Dianthus arenarius
Dianthus arenarius, the sand pink, is a species of Dianthus typically found on the shores of the Baltic Sea, although there are populations elsewhere in colder areas of Europe where there are sandy soils.[2] The unimproved species, and at least one cultivar, 'Little Maiden', are available from commercial suppliers.[3][4]
