This species which is not found in Romania seems to be the
Balkan - west Anatolian replacer of Dianthus carthusianorum
L. It also looks very much like our endemic Dianthus
banaticus (Heuffel) Borbas apart from the obvious pink (not
purple red) flowers in this particular subspecies
presented below.
Pictures taken from outside Romania,
on the rocks of the Pergamon citadel mountain, north-western Turkey,
May 2008.
