Our Plant Pink campaign has launched in all of our 14 award-winning garden centres across Leinster and Munster and online at CountryLife.ie. CountryLife are donating €2 to Breast Cancer Ireland for every one of its special ‘Tickled Pink’ Dianthus sold. The sun-loving plant was chosen because of its beauty, its unmistakable perfume, its resilience and its sun-loving characteristics. The specially chosen Pink Dianthus is grown in Limerick in a biologically friendly way with virtually no chemical pest control methods at the family-run Young Nurseries.

Tickled Pink is a compact, upright evergreen perennial that grows up to 30cm in height, with long, narrow blue-green leaves. It is neat and compact and is perfect for containers or borders. It has gorgeous vanilla-like scented lavender-pink flowers from summer to Autumn.
