Surprise in the Open Space area

I think these were planted by the wind or a bird. They look and smell like a dianthus. Beautiful blossoms, but not common in our open areas.
Gorgeous blooms!

Oh! I love these! Do you know if they are perennials? If so, I may have to look into planting some! :-)

@radiogirl @casablanca @bjywamer @robz @carole_sandford @wendyfrost @seattlite @corinnec @beryl @ljmanning Carnations, Sweet Williams and Pinks are ALL dianthus. These do look like sweet Williams. There are over 300 species and some are perennial, biennial or annual. Most are fragrant. If you like them and want them to be perennial, check the tag or ask your gardener. Most are perennial. Thanks for all your comments.

They wandered or drifted in from somewhere. The pattern and colors are quite eye-catching.
