At several of the nodes along the stem proliferations are visible greatly increasing the chances that the stems may be amenable to cloning. It is very unlikely that these Dianthus will very produce flowers and can only be propagated through tissue culture, cuttings or layering. In looking at the structure within the green ball, I am wondering if it would be possible to propagate some stalks which resemble miniature plants.
