Gentiana – Little Pinkie

Gentiana ‘Little Pinkie’ is a charming, dwarf gentian cultivar with delicate rose‑pink, trumpet‑shaped blooms that appear from summer through fall. It forms a compact, cushionlike mound of narrow, dark green leaves, ideal for rock gardens, border edges, or container accents. Though petite, its vivid colour draws attention, and it thrives in humus-rich, moist but well-drained soils, making it a standout among late‑season perennials. This variety offers gardeners a reliable splash of pink when many others have faded.
