Dianthus deltoides
It is a herbaceous perennial plant growing to 45 centimeters tall. It has very narrow green leaves forming a loosely tufted plant. The flowers are 15–20 millimeters across and usually pink, but they may be white and are often spotted white. The calyx tube itself is not scarious (papery and membranous) at the joints between the lobes. It is a plant of often calcareous grassland but may also be found on rocky ground and occasionally on old mine spoil.

Hahaha, no the spots are perfect. Blue is neutral :)
structure is nice, flower would have been nicer if there is no white spots...then blue is too boyish color? :D
I like the petal structures but the color is too girlish :)
